This depends greatly on what Koni you have - most of the ones people on
this list are likely to have are the yellow "Sport" Konis; those are only
adjustable for rebound ("single-adjustable").  The "double-adjustable"
Konis are a lot more expensive, although you can send single-adjustables
to a place like Truechoice ( http://www.truechoice.com/ ) to get them
converted to double-adjustables.  This isn't a bad thing; rebound 
adjustment is more important than compression anyway (IMHO).
