I've been eyeing subframe connectors and UCAs/LCAs myself

adjustable lower control arms, upper control arms, get some subframe connectors to keep everything stiff, torque box reinforcements (i've had a problem with torque boxes before and trust me, you dont want to have this problem), adjustable front struts. and unbolt your front sway bar when you want to launch but make sure you have it on when driving around on the street.

control arms help the most with reducing/eliminating wheel hop but will help your launch even if you dont have wheel hop by helping to plant your tires more in the road. if they are adjustable they can adjust the pinion angle of the rear end which is supposed to push the tires down into the ground even more. adjustable front struts will let you adjust the struts for maximum weight transfer (putting more weight on the back tires for better traction) when you need it but you can always turn the dial back for regular street driving.

unbolting the sway bar is an easy 5 min job which will allow more weight transfer.

good luck!
