Default Adjusting koni DA front shocks

Looking for good base setting for a street driven 98 SS. I realize all cars will like them adjusted differently. But what are good starting points? Anyone running them please feel free to tell me your settings and use(autocross/street/drag). Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

Default Half way point

I was told to start in the middle. However, Koni suggests to start at full soft. The 8241-1139 has 8 sweeps, or 8 "1/4" turns. I started at 4. That way if it was too firm I knew I could adjust down from that point and if it was not firm enough I could adjust up. I did this rather than starting at full soft and possibly having to make several adjustments. It happens I thought 4 sweeps was too firm and I ended up going 1 sweep "1/4" of a turn below that half way mark. This adjustment seems to fit my driving style.
