Is the Jetprop the right plane for my mission? (and other high performance types)

I have been given the following, to post, with no more information:

the engine is able to qualify for the MORE program http://www.morecompany.net. This will upgrade the PT6 TBO to 8000 hours and not 4000 hours.

I owned two of those planes and that is by far exaggerated. On a good day it will do 195/200kt TAS on 20GPH. And it does not like to cruise above FL200 so you will be using even more fuel to cool the engine that high up. The Mirage is an amazing plane it just needs another engine.
