Keep in mind, (assuming S/A Koni's), your adjusting rebound only. It does however have some effect on compression dampening. With that in mind, closer to full soft works out best for most.

Have a look at this; obviously geared towards road course setup, but nonetheless relevant with some good info published by Koni.

Thanks tulowd, very interesting read with lots of useful information. I'm looking forward to this install next spring. As so many have said, I'm sure I'll wonder why I didn't do it sooner. As it stands right now my car handles significantly better than stock. This will be the icing on the cake!
I vote for Bilsteins. Even though they are more costly, they ride fine and last.
What about KYB GR-2 for a DD on a S197 with 1.5" drop? Found a set for a good deal with springs and GT500 strut mounts. I had the KYBs on my SN95 and they were ok....but part of the ride quality issue could be from other factors that were not fixed before I went to Bilstiens.
Have not installed KYB on a S197 yet but they were a decent budget choice on Fox n SN95.
Kyb seems to get good reviews Norm, stock shocks for life though!
ZR installed my koni yellows no complaints night & day
