Buying EFR 8374 separately need help on options

Hello

I am a noob when it comes down to turbo cars (maybe I am noob all around). Anyway I have vendor who can source me EFR 8374 directly (if I have the part number)..
Originally I was going to buy the kit from either turbosource or IRP but my mechanic said he can fabricate all the pipings...

Anyway I went to fullrace to pick 8374 but I have no idea what these options are.
I am pretty sure I will have to get IWG T4 0.92 AR
Do I need
speed sensor
turbo speed gauge

The real question is:
do IRP and turbosource technically use same part number? I think IRP uses #179357 but turbosource may use different part number.
I am pretty sure they may change things here and there for their kits.

Which EFR8374 iwg turbo should I buy to mimic irp or turbosource kit. (I might just hell with it and buy their kits if it's too much headache)
Anyone got part numbers?

Thank you guys for the help!

You don't need the turbo speed sensor or guage, those are extras. I WOULD recommend picking up an upgraded Turbosmart actuator and TS bov cap though.

The different serial numbers just correspond to the available options (rear A/R, IWG/EWG, front cover style, etc.)

Have you tried calling full-race and talking with them about what you want? Also, why not just let your mechanic place the order?

The nice thing about buying from full-race is that they ARE an actual BW distributor, so if you have issues with the turbo it'll be much easier to warranty. I don't know about IRP, but I know turbosource was NOT a licensed dealer for BW when I ordered mine last year. If you buy from a reseller then they're an extra middle man with any issue corrections.

Oh awesome thank you for your input.
I didn't know full-race was bw distributor so I guess I will ask them what I need.
