Ok so, Im doing a 5 lug conversion with koni struts and im at the point before i have to put it in and i have to set the shocks rebound stiffness. Im gonna be doing autocross and even track days in this car so i was thinking of 1/2 to 3/4 of full adjustment stiff or 1-1.5 full turns. Is there an ideal setting for a 914 or is the setting: Just wing it

I think there are a lot of things you have to consider. Sway bar/s, spring rates front and rear, tires, tire pressure, driving style, alignment. My car has a 22mm weltmeister front bar, stock fromt torsion bars, 140# rear springs, 205/55/16. For autocross I only adjust my reds in the front to full hard. The rears are always full soft. Get out and drive it. Talk to the instructors or the gear heads that work on the cars when your there. Have people observe how you car looks when it's on the track. Make one change at a time. Keep going back and have fun!
