I don't mean will a said 400 turbo make more than 400 as it won't because it's a 400hp turbo, so out of the two turbo setups at the same power which would be quicker?
I know the efr would spool up quicker but wouldn't the t34 (in this said example) make power higher up in the Rev range where the efr' tend to drop off?

No, because that would largely be dictated by other factors. If the turbo was dropping off badly, then it would need to be much smaller, but then it wouldnt be a 400hp turbo. It would be smaller.
For most part though, the EFR would be quicker in every respect. You're comparing literally an ancient T series to a modern turbo.
Almost any modern turbo will be faster of equivalent power rating. On the drag strip not so much, but that's already been explained.
