You mean rebound adjustable? Triple adjustable would be a very custom (and expensive) high end race shock.
The new off-the-shelf Koni sports designed for the 986 boxster are externally rebound adjustable on front (by knob at top of strut, accessed under the front trim behind the frunk), and rebound adjustable at rear only when strut is removed (by fully compressing the shaft and turning to engage the internal adjusting mechanism).
The shocks come at minimum rebound setting out of the box, so if you want your rears firmed up any, you should tell your installer how much before he installs them. If you have stock non-M030 suspension, im guessing probably the factory minimum rear setting will work well though.
It is really nice to have adjustability at one end of the car, as you can easily fine-tune the handling balance that way. (Although if the shocks are set at full soft, you can only adjust them firmer, not softer).
PS - That cut ball joint boot sure looks like it had a nasty incident with a pickle fork.
