I hear you Dave.
I'am also still wondering what problem they wanted to solve there? Same goes for most creative rear suspension set-ups. IRS is good enough for 911's and 944's which raced up to huge hp with it in heavy cars on real racetracks in real competitive races.
The low 8 second 900+ hp Skinne beetle uses a basically stock IRS set-up.
Coil-over mandatory though and a real upgrade, but thats easy and you already got that. Other then that, what/why does it need changing? I would focus on the front end mostly.

Not a fan of urethane bushings, so I used some parts from porsche 944 performance shops, can't remember their names atm. Pics of both sides of the pivot point upgrades are still in my thread somewhere probably.
