Think of them as individual "clicks". Koni's are sensitive to each of the "clicks".

You can adjust them to full stiff by turning them counterclockwise until the adjuster simply stops.

I've seen numerous places that recommend that you back off 1/4 turn so you don't jam the adjuster.

Try full stiff and work your way 1 "click" u til you get the desired ride I guess.

I love my Konis

ive tried it at half and its still way too stiff..i know the AGX s in the rear are about 15% stiffer than stock..a perfect match with the eibach pros..but i cant get the match for the front..so im now looking for % numbers on the fronts..with all the recommendations coming from everyone about the koni s ..i would have thought someone would know

I love my Konis
