The turbos are two entirely different models from two different manufacturers. The base model turbo is manufactured by Garrett and the SE/high output model is manufactured by Mitsubishi.
In addition the tires, suspension and accessories are different.
The SE comes with larger tires, stiffer suspension and some amenities (such as power heated seats, upgraded sound, automatic climate control, etc.) standard.
I drove the base followed by the SE. The difference is substantial. I say drive both and purchase the one that best suits your needs / feels good to you. I ended up going with the SE.
