I'd suggest a parts house or eBay 4 pinner (& a spare in the glove box).

I've run a Hi Rev 7500 on my Challenger for a couple of years now (about 15K miles). The car runs fine and I've had no issues with it.

Myself I've gone to GM HEI modules with the Ford TFI coil on the type of applications I used to use orange and chrome boxes on. Both the coil and the module together cost less than the Chrysler module alone, they wire right up to a Mopar distributor and produce a nice spark.
For the more performance oriented stuff, msd.

Not sure where you are pricing your stuff
Chrysler ICU - $13.88 GM ICU - $9.54 Ford TFI Coil - $8.66
Cheapest regular priced options at RA. Pretty sure I wouldn't use those options in any case, but the point it it's not really cheaper.
You price the high end and the GM/Ford combo is about twice the Mopar ICU cost.

If I remember correctly, p4120534 was priced in the (ballpark) 80 range.
I'm quite familiar with these items as I ran them for decades and worked for the manufacturer who used to sell them.
For me, time for something different. For others maybe not.

Ok, didn't realize you were talking about buying MP stuff. Standard LX101 is under $40. Off brand equivalent is under $14, not sure I'd use that though or rhw later MP stuff for that matter.

I doubt most of the people running a chrome box actually need a chrome box. 7500rpm is a lot.

I'd suggest going to a yard & getting (2) OE 4 pin ECU's. OR (2) from a parts house (most are overseas made now), even the standard motor products LX101 (I believe). A high(er) dollar one might give more power but I ain't convinced but I cant say for sure. I like the HEI mounted under the dist on an alum plate (easy to make) or www.designed2drive.com has a nice alum tailor made one but it is pricey (dont forget the heat sink paste between it & the alum plate) & its a full 12V system so get an E coil or some full 12V coil. Dogdays had me get the furd TPI coil mentioned (yes dirt cheap from RA) & I put it on a DD truck with an OE HEI module & it was a new buildup then was sold quick all of a sudden so no actual before/actual exp but nothing jumped out at me about it but that setup is coming back to me in a trade so I will be trying it on something current. As I'm typing this I now remember that it did start instantly every time.

^^^ (3) of em are $28.93 to my door. the LX101's are made in china now but I'd feel OK with 2 spares. All that is left is if they "pull" timing like some of the newer MP orange boxes reportedly do. All it is supposed to do (& nothing more) electronically is open the coil primary to collapse it when the dist pickup triggers it to do so & any electronic "delay" in that function pulls timing.
