They make a decent improvement but you will still get wheel hop with them. Yoiu need to get some traction bars.

Can you weld? Z10 has introduced a build it yourself kit. It comes with all the same pieces as their premade kit, but you can fit it to your car, to insure clearance of the arms. They go for $199 for the kit

what kind of tires do you have?
i had a huge hop problem when i had kumho ecsta's on, but i switched them today. i put my steelies on with azenis' and then problem is completely gone. launching is so smooth... and i have an almost silent and instantly grabbing 1-2 shift. btw, im lowered 2" on blown stocks. so you dont need a good suspension to get rid of wheel hop. although i do have prothane radiusrod bushings, but thats it.
and i almost forgot, i have a custom made solid front mount.
