I'd first start off with LCA's and if no result then get some LCA relocation brackets. And then finally a Torque Arm. Either way, even after all these mods on my car along with new shock and springs, I still have wheel hop over bumps upon acceleration. Hope this helps.

I used UMI weld in lowering brackets to eliminate my wheel hop.

subframe connectors dont do anything as far as how the suspension behaves.
I've tried several different combinations of rear suspension. All stock except TA, All stock except LCA's, All stock except shocks, LCA's + TA, LCA's + TA and shocks.
All of these (shocks, TA, LCAs) have some affect on wheel hop both individual and in unison.. but if I had to pick one item that did the best job eliminating wheelhop it would be the torque arm. but this doesn't mean that it will work the best for everyone.

Have you ever stomped on the throttle at a light and while crossing the intersection and hitting a bump from traffic groves in the street and go from having nice solid traction to slipping a tad after hitting the bump?? Its b/c of wheel hop, it happens....

Umm yeah, you might not notice it but the rear will still bounce upon hard acceleration over huge bumps, just not as much as stock. The LCA brackets just adjust the angle of the LCA which for most if over kill for their set up.

Yea well there is no product that prevents wheel hop when you accelerate over bumps.
I'm talking about straight line, flat ground wheel hop under hard acceleration. My car never did it, then I swapped from an A4 to M6 and it started. I put in LCA relocation brackets and it no longer has wheel hop on flat ground. It will spin the tires still but it doesn't have wheel hop.
