Its not as ideal for cornering as other setups in terms of performance, but I don't think you necessarily need to re-think the setup or bushings, although Jonny joints probably would free it up.
Other than the geometry of the IC and stuff, eg from a binding perspective, how different really is it from the DSE style 4 link that for example Stielow uses, the only difference I know about is they (DSE) use some big compliant rubber bushings that flex just a bit more than these poly bushings.

I just don't even know how to respond to these thoughts. Do you really "think" that a 4 bar wouldn't experience bind in corners - and that it's similar to a triangulated 4 bar.... and that DSE sells anything like this.
You do realize that the DSE Quadralink uses a swiveling bar system (on all 4 bars used) in an effort to become non-binding as the car rolls?
