Default Do I need a Torque Arm?

I've recently heads/cam installed on my car and I'm making much more power than I was before. When I drive the car around now I notice that if I go WOT in 1st or 2nd gear I'm getting a lot of wheel hop. Now I know it's cold outside but I'm probably making enough power to get into some more suspension mods. I was thinking from what I've read when I've done my searches that I'm going to require a Torque Arm and LCA's. I was thinking about getting the BMR LCA's - TCA002 - Tubular control arms w/rubber-poly bushings and the BMR Torque Arm. Do I need anything else?

I'm stock Firehawk Suspension right now aside from my BMR Subframe Connectors and SLP STB.

Thanks in Advance.
