Any NVH due to these mods?
The only one that will increase gear whine (if your car has any to begin with) are the differential bushing inserts. The rest should be smooth sailing!

I recently threw some parts on my Roush Stage 2 to address wheel hop and the loose feeling IRS.

Steeda IRS Subframe Bushings
Steeda Differential Bushing Inserts (red)
Steeda Vertical Links
Steeda Toe Links
Steeda IRS Braces
Steeda Bumpsteer Kit
Eibach Sportlines
Eibach Sway Bars
Maximum Motorsport Caster Camber Plates

Wheel Hop is gone and the IRS is now solid. I don't know if I am feeling the stance though. Does it seem like it needs spacers?
Just curious how much all of this costs? Also, couldn't adjustable shocks just take care of the wheel hop/ bounce?

The wheel hop/bounce is mildly annoying to me but it's not $1,000 annoying so depending on cost I'll just live with it or not. My GT is already low enough for me so nor really interested in a 1" or more drop because of back issues. I think with adjustable shocks I could lower 1/2" which would be all I'd be interested in.

Shocks may partially remedy wheel hop on lower RPM launches, but a large portion of it is the slop in the factory IRS bushings and cradle. When you stiffen and or reinforce the bushings and cradle you let the suspension work more effectively to put power down. You could start with the IRS bushings and possibly the brace and should help especially if you combine it with shocks. You cant go wrong with Steeda!

I have all the stuff you have! Great choice! I have steeds progressive springs though and plan on upgrading shocks or going to coilovers. I did add though 25mm eibach spacers

The spacers look good!
