996 forks springs

The 996 forks are on my S4 they have improved the handling massivly over the standard forks but .......the bike is a road bike used on very bumpy roads so a plush fork is needed .

what is the standard nm weighting of standard 996 fork springs ? 8.5nm 9.0 nm or 9.5nm as the springs in mine are way too hard i have them set on ZERO preload and forks still to hard oil is 7.5w and 140mm airgap

compression set at 4clicks and rebound 13 clicks bike handle fine but crashes over bumps seems to me and others who have tried the bike that springs are way to strong ????

bike has Ktech revalve kit and possibly Ohlins springs supposedly 9.0nm but i have my doubts about what spings are really in the bike I do have a set of standard 996 springs .
