A turbo speed sensor is a option, that turbo does not have it fitted.

On the EFR the internal housing is smaller so tech less power and more back pressure.

No you would need to add it, It also depends on what manifold you have and what turbo option/size you wanted, It may not fit on a 2wd manifold but I need to get a T3 flanged one to know.

Depends on hp and if the turbo fits on a 2wd manifold, if it doesnt then you need to add the cost of the manifold also.
