compress more than the Koni sport shocks. The reason I'm asking is that I have Intrax springs (the ones that drop around 1.5) coming with Neuspeed adj shocks. I don't want to have to do multiple installs to get the right height. I'm trying to get close to 25.25 in the rear and just a little higher in the front. I'm guessing it is the middle setting or one lower but I don't know. I've searched the archives.

Default It depends on the springs really. Example: H&R sport springs compress (more)

a lot and will settle quite a bit. The second notch from the top is probably what you want.

Default Thanks. That confirms what I was thinking......

The Intrax don't compress as much as H and R. I wanted a more progressive spring that was a little more sporty (stiffer). I would've got the Koni's but they were a little taller than I wanted (25.5 vs 25.25 or whatever i wanted with the Neusteins). I'll post pics and my opinion on the setup later (I searched the archives and I don't think anyone has it).
