Good morning - for a 3.2 914/6 build do I ideally want to run the inner stiffening kit and the outer?

I have the inner kit in hand, wondering about this one from Maddog.

I do understand they reinforce different parts of the car. Talking about this kit, stock picture of the back, similar plate is provided for the front.

Thanks!

I haven't really pushed the 3.2, but I find the chassis OK as is. Compared to a lot of cars of the era it seems pretty solid. A lot depends on how you plan to drive the car and what other modifications you are making.
