Gen6 Engine Torque Damper

Are there any engine torque dampers for the gen 6 Camry (2009)? I can't find anything with Google. I'm trying to reduce wheel hop and I've heard this does a good job without negatively affecting ride quality (vibration).

It will cause very noticable vibration and interior noise. I had a few buddys who put them on their tC's, and took them off shortly after because it was annoying them with the noise/vibration in the car....

From what I've read, the noise/vibration depends on the tuning of the damper (some are stiffer than others); is that true? And if an ETD isn't the answer, is there another modification that would achieve the same (i.e. reducing wheel hop)?
