Thanks for all the responses everyone! Should have listed my mods...

-Full Bolt ons
-UMI lower control arms and relocation brackets
-UMI adjustable panhard bar
-Competition engineering rear drag shocks (to be installed)
-TA performance studs and girdle cover (praying this will help a little)

SRGN you do have a very good point and I have all intentions of getting a 12 bolt or 9" under there as soon as I can. Unfortunately, its just not possible right now for me (especially since I just bought a new daily driver). They are just so expensive, and it doesn't really seem like there are any fairly cheap options. I'm going to try to enjoy my car as much as possible, and if the rear blows, so be it. I'm not going to live in fear of it breaking, although am going to try to be careful on my launches.

If getting a chassis mount torque arm will help me eliminate wheel hop, i'm for sure going to get one (in hopes of saving the rear for as long as possible). What do you guys think?

Josh, would you be able to give me a price on a chassis mount adjustable UMI torque arm? Not completely sure how it works, but if a relocation kit is needed to get it off the transmission, a price for that would also be appreciated!

Thanks everyone!
