KYB AGX Strut Settings
 
So I just got a set of KYB AGX's with some H&R Race springs, but I'm not installing them until next weekend so I was just curious what settings all you knowledgable HMT folks would use on them. I just want a nice street setup, I wont be at the track with it, so I'm just looking for the best handling I can get just street driving. I would post this up in another section of the forum, but I know I'll get the best/most advice in GD. Thanks a lot.

*EDIT* This will be going on a 96 Civic EX coupe

i've got the agx's on my crx right now..... they were on setting 1 for a long time and it rode great... right now it's on level 2 which is a bit stiff, but not too bad if your roads don't suck. and the handling difference between 1 and 2 is amazing. Try both and pick a winner.

On the street I usually run 2 front and 5 back, then run 3 or 4/8 for autocross. Keeping the rears relatively higher than the fronts helps the car rotate a little better around the corners. I like them a lot, but they ride a little rough on crappy roads. I forget exactly where I saw it, but I heard that lowest settings are the same as "stock" (100%) and max settings are 100% damping increase, so 2X stock. I run them with HR sports, which I am really happy with.

Good luck on the install. be careful with the rear LCA bolts. I busted 2 on my install.

I thought AGX's went up to 8?

Oh, and #1 setting is 5% softer than stock, #2 is stock and #8 is like 123% stock or something, there was a thread on here that someone posted up about it with exact settings.

skunk2s with AGX's set on 1 is nice, set on 4 is a ------- roller coaster, so we leave it on 4 :)
