Default Fork setting

just over that dangerous idea of swapping front end i would like to know how to tune at its best fork. im not looking for track performance just something nice. And i would like to achieve this wuite zero money. right now i have 15mm spacers and 20w oil. it works awfull.
Rt suggest to use 1kg/mm spring while stock are 0.5kg/mm thinking about cut them to reach this value ( i have a calculator for this job) then dunno how to tune hydraulics ( i bought 80w oil for misc experiments ).
Im going to disable antidive by soldering a spacers below valve, on the right fork the oil lock seems to open another hole on rebound maybe its going to leave asweel.
i would like to know your experince about it, hoping rrasco and michigan and all old members could read it

I have Racetech .95kg linear springs and 15w fork oil and it's decent. I am planning on buying Racetech gold cartridge emulators as well which is about the best you can do without swapping forks/front ends I believe.
