For Enduro racing is A-kit worth it?

Here's my situation. I've raced motocross for my whole life. Always basically stock bike with revalved suspension, and if sponsors were happy, with a different pipe.

Now on paper I'm an a class rider. Got my points and got rised there two years back. Though after that the seasons have been, let's just say riddled with difficulties let's leave it at that.

So I got fed up with motocross and the broken seasons. And now I'm moving to enduro, how ever I still want to do some races in motocross and drive it for fun of it. So I'm gonna need a second set of suspension. And I was planning on making the stock suspension into my motocross suspension.

Now the a kit. I have an opportunity to by a set of a kit stuff for a great discount. However it's still gonna bite a fat hole into my pockets.

At the same time I can get second set of stock suspension at far more reasonable price. Though it's used unlike the a kit.

Okay, now the level I'm driving at in Enduro. Very close to a class, as in if I had driven in any other class then mx, I would have still won except the a class where I would have been dead last. B though, I would have won with a minute and some change and that was me going 70% after half way done because I was leading my own class with 2.30 minutes.

So for my specific needs would a kit be a good choice? Currently I feel like I can be fighting for a championship next year, if I stay healthy and current rate of improvement stays steady. (On my local loop I've improved my time 4.10 ->3.55 in a month) And now I'm starting to feel like I'm running on the edge of my equipment. Any faster and the bike can't keep up. So is a kit worth it in my situation?
