I'd suggest checking out the changes both mods make which are listed in their threads in first post.

I prefer and play the minimod, as it is a simple "Extract&forget"-thing you can even customise with some additional patches offered (e.g. switching off Citymod if you don't like it) and stuff. A great deal easier to install

I can't help you much with the installation with steam as I don't have the steam copy, but these mods all go exactly the same where you have put your EB installation
