Sport Suspension
The Sport suspension package uses the same design Tokico struts as the Touring suspension; however, the struts are valved for somewhat stiffer response. Roll stiffness is increased as well with a heavier front sway bar and the addition of a rear sway bar (again similar to the first generation car). This package comes standard on the R/T, and is included on both SE and ES Neons when equipped with the optional Sports Appearance Package. The Sport package has the same steering ratio as the Touring setup, but with less power-assist boost for better road feel.

Competition Suspension
The Competition suspension package is only available on ACR Neons, and is even more fully developed than the first generation ACR. Foremost in the design are double-adjustable struts with a wide range of stiffness for both rebound and compression. Compression/rebound are adjusted together rather than separately; but this is an improvement over the later first-generation ACR Konis in which compression was not adjustable at all. The Competition struts are inverted in design, meaning the hydraulics are at the top of the strut, for increased strength and resistance to lateral loading. They adjust from below rather than above. These excellent pieces are manufactured in the UK by Dynamic Suspensions, and are similar to the struts used in the popular British Touring Car series racecars. Spring rates are the same as the Sport package, as are the front and rear stabilizer bars. The Competition package also includes the low-boost "firm feel" power steering.
The struts have six full turns of the adjustment knob. To adjust damping, turn the knob clockwise until strut damping is at full hard, then turn the knob counter-clockwise to the desired number of detent clicks. 24 clicks down is considered full soft. The detents may not be noticeable, painting hash marks on the knobs and counting the rotations would be more accurate.

Do you really need to post the same thing in multipul forums?
