Using T2 modules will improve your performance, however they require somewhat better skills and are a lot more expensive and for some modules it might not be worth it on a T1 frigate. However as an Eve University member you are allowed to fit T2 modules to your frigates as you see fit.<br>

Keep in mind that there are so called named versions of all modules as well (meta 1 to meta 4) which offer more performance than vanilla T1 and are easier to fit as well, though especially the higher meta versions might be more expensive than the T2 version.<br>

Note: A T2 warp disruptor offers 24 km more range than any T1 version and requires only 1 additional level of propulsion jamming, so it's very useful for long range tacklers, if you can afford it.<br>

==== Sensor boosters? ====
Sensor booster increase the scan resolution of your ship and thus allow you to lock a target faster and/or the increase the locking range of your ship. Increased locking range is usually not necessary, most T1 frigates can lock targets beyond 24 km which is the range of a T2 warp disruptor. Though you could possibly prevent a ship from using a cloak by locking it from a distance. However a sensor booster on a tackling frigate is usually used to increase scan resolution allowing you to lock and tackle your target faster, hopefully before it warps off. A sensor booster is a viable option if you got a spare midslot.<br>
