Default Help with M6 Radial car please.

Car setup is as follows, 9inch, 4.11 gear, truetrac, BMR adj. torque arm with reloc crossmember, -2 pinion angle, UMI rod ended lca's, No relocation brackets, CE rear shocks set at 50/50, stock swaybar, as of now stock front suspension with the swaybar removed, 15x3.5 prostars w/ moroso ds-2s. Stock t56 with a textralia clutch and pro5.0 shifter, cam and bolt on car making roughly 390rwhp. 255 MT et radial on stock 16x8 rim @ 15.5-16.5 psi.

Anyways the problem came with the car hooking hard then bogging HARD. I would dial up 4500rpm's and on the last yellow I would swing the rpms and drop the clutch. The car would hook hard and lift the front wheels a few inches in the air and then bog down hard. I am curious what to try, more rpm, stiffer setting on the rear shocks? Would relocation brackets help? What about moving the IC further infront of the car? I am sure getting the junk shocks of the rear along with replacing the stock stuff up front would help, but I would assume the car can still leave somewhat decent with the setup it has now.

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Try adding air to the rear tires a pound at a time.
