Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I'll be trying them (one at a time of course) to see what happens to the car.

Well the idea is that a shorter W/B will effectively move the weight in the chassis backwards. This puts less weight on the front wheels and more weight on the rear wheels. With less weight pushing the front wheels into the ground the grip will react faster, changing the direction the car is travelling faster, hence MORE turn in.
Without watching/driving the car it's difficult to say definatively, but, sounds like it shoud help
Rotation: This can be effected by just about everything you can adjust. One of the mor consistant ways to increase/decrease rotaion is anti squat, though this also alters the way a car jumps, have a read through the setup section of your B4 instructions about anti squat.
