Hello, Good Day and Welcome.
Whereabouts are you based? that will give a clue as to local suppliers.
A key to the general principles of a good handling rear aircooled engined car are to be found with the bugs step brother, the 911. Many 'P' bits are transferable that can provide a massive upgrade particularly on the suspension front. 944 rear components are highly desirable and indeed 944 front legs can be added with the addition of the later '03 track control arm. Unless you intend to periodically adjust the ride height or run extra wide wheels (not good for ultimate grip or handling) coilover struts IMO are not necessary. As suggested a Cup brace would be useful as will a strut brace to add much wanted torsional regidity. At the very least change all the bushings to hard polyurethane of various shore hardnesses and fit good quality dampers - Bilsteins are a good choice. The overlying principle is CONTROL. If all the components are in control and working together then you can expect the best. If some components are squirming around then you will have little hope of getting the best out of it.
In what environment do you intend to exploit the handling? that will give a clue to the suggested package of measures. remember a circuit track day racer will have different requirements to one that is driven quick on bumpy, twisty country roads.
