Stiffer engine mounts help reduce wheel hop but transfer more vibration into the cockpit.

Tires not gripping also contributes to wheel hop, especially in wet condition.

mm...

Strangthen up your rear trailing arm bushing so when you launch, the car won't tilt as much up front, to get more tire contact patch down.
