Default S trim vs T trim

I have an overall goal of 600RWHP with stage 3 heads,S292 cams, victor jr intake, and built shortblock bored .020" over and a supporting fuel system. Would a T-trim be worth the extra $500 over the S trim with 600RWHP being my goal?

The S-trim is going to run out of steam before 600rwhp. To upgrade later is around $1000... so $500 up front seems reasonable to me.

A T trim is always worth the extra. IDC if it's an extra $1k. You always end up wanting more power than you started wanting in the beginning. If I had it to do over again, I would have started with the T.
