at 500 hp is the extra cost of the hart worth it over either a 4x4 with spacer or ideally an ST?

I have a Hart plenum and had to helicoil every hole in it as the casting in weak as the threads were pulling out at a lot less than Joes recommended torque settings.

The small turbo escort plenum and throttle body is the best standard set up that's what I was told when I first had mine modded to 500bhp if imagine it's the same size as it looks fairly similar but I don't have that cover any more so couldn't measure it.
But I no the throttle body is a little larger
