You dont have a stock V6, you have a bolt on V6. My 98 V6 with the same mods as you put down 180rwhp and 210 rwtq. That equates to around 215 hp and 250ish tq! Stock its 200 hp and 225 tq. You have a rear wheel drive car making over 200 hp and 250 ftlbs of tq!! Welcome to life! You didnt have wheel hop with you old rear because it was only 1 wheel peel. Now your rear is trying to grip with both tire but its not getting the power down due to suspension or tires so it hops from both wheels spinning. The more you wheel hop the better chances are that your rear end is going to break!

Have you changed the fluid in the rear since you had it installed? If not I would and make sure you get some posi additive in there and check the wear on the gears!
