You didn't say if you had single or double adjustable Koni's.
I run Koni double adjustable on full soft on the street. ( 4th gen 1LE Camaro) For Autocross and roadracing, it depends on the course, and if its concrete or asphalt. I usually start at 3 to 4 clicks on top, and 4 on the bottom. You will just have to play with the adjustments until you feel its right for you.

I believe they are single adjustable. There are 2 types which are available, the red adjustable and the yellow non adjustable. I have the red 'sport' ones
I'm not even sure how you adjust them

I HAVE THE REDS ON MY IROC WITH THE EIBACH SPRINGS. THE REAR SHOCKS ARE 4 POSITION, I SET THEM AT THE 2ND SOFTEST. THE FRONTS HAVE A ***, I SET THIS AT ONE HALF TURN. AND BUMP IT UP TO 3/4 FOR TRIPS. THIS CAR RIDES AWESOME ON THE HIGHWAY AND AT HIGH SPEEDS. IT'S A BIT MUCH FOR 'ROUND TOWN DRIVING ON OUR CRAPPY NJ ROADS SO TURN THEM BACK DOWN. YOU SHOULD PROBABLY START WITH EVERYTHING IN THE SOFTEST SETTING AND INCREASE A BIT AT A TIME TILL YOU REACH WHAT YOU FEEL IS THE BEST COMPROMISE OF RIDE/HANDLING
