If it is squatting hard, it sounds like too much energy is being put into the suspension. With a clutch like that it pits a lot of shock type load on the whole drive train. The energy has to go somewhere and it looks like too much of it is going into pushing the bum of your car down and not enough pushing it forward.

Double wishbone setups are difficult to modify, so I would look first at tightening up all the pivot points, make sure the bushes are not deteriarated. You could even look at replacing them for something harder, however this detract from ride quality.

Short of that look at using stiffer shocks. You said you shocks were adjustable, is it just for rebound or bump as well? I guess you would want them hard on bump and softer on rebound.
