Suspension alone won't fix wheel hop/traction issues, although decent damping does go some way to improving it. It's the sum of a few upgrades which solves that, namely - ALK, stiffer mounts, damping and tyres. There isn't a lot you can do about rearward weight transfer in a FWD car, other than making the rear suspension stiffer to compensate, but that would come with ride quality and grip penalties.
In terms of cornering grip, ultimately you're always going to be limited by tyre width but quality suspension + ARBs gets you closer to the limits without excessive body roll and tyre screeching
Flat cornering reduces TC intervention as well
I can fully endorse the Ohlins kit + Eibach 26/23mm ARBs, but that is nearly 3 grand's worth of suspension on a 10+ year old car. Very hard to justify for a lot of people, which I totally get. If budget isn't an issue, then I can't think of a reason not to go for that setup, other than the recommended 30,000KM damper rebuild interval. I am well past that mileage on mine though, and the damping is still just as tight now as it was when new
