FWIW, there is no real "midvalve" setup in the fork, its just a checkplate with a .3mm shim. Yes, start with fixing the rebound stack first and try it to gauge the diference. Next, go back in and replace the .3mm with the following over the spring:

22 x .1
22 x .1
19 x .1
15 x .1 (stack to adjust float)

Try a float of 1.4 - 1.5 for starters, and work down until it gets more harsh, then back up. This helps slow things down a bit.

A fast guy like you might like this, I do and I'm only half fast.

Get rid of any bleed shims on the base valve as well. A bleed shim under the checkplate is totally ridiculous IMO.
