Drag Bag Question

I have a 05 GTO with A/4 trans. It has several bolt on items and a big cam. Do you think I need to install Drag Bags. My car is making 435 RWTQ at its peak and makes over 390 RWTQ at slightly over 3500 RPMS . I do not have any issues with wheel hop when hard on the gas from a stand still or from a roll on. Rear just seems to just squat down, digs in and goes. It will get sideways.
Thanks for any input

Should not need them. M6 cars have problems with wheel hop and the DB do help. For normal street driving they will make for a stiffer ride. They will not correct sideways problem. Pedders would fix that.

Thanks, my car gets sideways very easily. I can be driving around at about 50 MPH and just nail the throttle and the thing will just down shift a gear or two sending the back end spinning and getting a little off center. I might check into the Pedders, thanks
