is there some trick to calculating modes in an irregular shaped room like this?
It sure isn't an exact science, so I feel if you take a look at the main three axial modes of length, width and height, it's about the best you can do. I always like to look at the first and second order to see if there is some unwanted reinforcement with those resonances. But, your room is finished, so how much does the information help.

with heavy cuts seems to improve the impulse response
Well, the boost filters meant you had to turn the input to the BFD down to accomodate the gain you were using. That reduces dynamic range and increases noise. I haven't been able to convince many people of the fact, but it doesn't make it any less true.
