Default That doesn't mean anything is wrong...I know several people who have this setup...
I have mine on the way...you're the only one I've seen complaining about the Koni setup...maybe you actually got the wrong parts from your tuner...have you contacted Koni for assistance?

Regards,

Beware what? The only problem I've seen is the lack of bumpstop on some.

Sounds like an isolated case. Check your Koni dealer and see what they say

Default uugh, looks like you just need some help from someone who knows about the components.
After 5 coil over kits, I had only seen one with a bad rebound adjuster - Adam's, which Koni of NA addressed quite impressively IMO.

I think you're supposed to move them from your OEM shocks onto the CO's aren't you?

I sure would. I rebuilt a kit from a major tuner, wrong rates and no bumpstops.
