Mustang IRS
On Koni's site they talk about adjusting their double adjustables, rebound being first I believe. Since the Tokico's will increase compression with rebound I think you want to get them just to the point of being too stiff and then back them down a quarter turn and try that. Also for the fronts you may be able to go stiffer which will decrease some body roll. On the stock Boss setup I run full hard front (5/5) and (2/5) rear which seems to work very well.

I am assuming that the BOSS(I have looked and cannot find a number) has the same suspension from Ford Racing, the adjustable one that I got. So, I was told that there were about 9'ish turns. So he may have said 5 and I heard 9. I know you have to be careful not to go to far toward the soft side, as one might damage the internals.
You are right, I am defending it because it does work well, and to be honest I have never driven a RWD IRS car, ever. But I can't see how an IRS snapping to one side or another is going to be more predictable then an SRA, and you also have to know that each of the cars you listed have completely different chassis which add to the dynamic. I also am all for progressing but I can see why Ford stayed with the SRA since they can make it work. As others have said an IRS comes with other issues, wheel hop, weight, half shafts not handling the power, increased drive train loss. I can't stress enough also that you track your car, if you don't already. I think you would gain a much better understanding of what it is doing when it steps out. What do you have the sway's set to?
