If you already have an IRS bug, you will simply need to use VW sized swingarm bushings installed into the 944 arms.

Exactly, thanks Rob. I forgot about the differences but the rest still applies.

You are going to need to add some material, because the anti-roll bar needs to clear the chassis fork.
In my case, the Anti-roll bar bushing sits at exactly 6,5cm away from the torsion housing.
