I think if you simply just went with the above advice you'd be happy.

If you want to take another approach, start with the shocks all the way open (full counter clockwise). This will give you a starting point with full comfort and compliance. Get some driving in and begin adding force by closing the valving (clockwise) until the chassis is reacting the way you want and laziness / wallowiness has been dialed out to your liking. Adjust all four corners the same and at the same time, e.g. 10 clicks out from full stiff all 4 corners. From there adjust the opposite end of the car to dial out unwanted handling traits: Understeering, take a click or two out of (soften) the rear. Oversteering, do that to the front. And take notes along the way.
