Default Do you need a chip to run a t3

Im running a fiesta turbo 1.6 cvh with an escort t3 upgrade on ofab . it had ofac with a 165 chip but the ecu burnt out so i did the sensable thing and upgraded.
my mate told me that to run a t3 you need a t3 chip but others have assured me that any chip will do .
whats the difference !
aparently a t3 chip tells the ecu to fuel a bit later because the t3 spins up later than the t2 and a 195 chip wont do this ,all it will do is take the limiter off the fuel. Not tell it when to fuel.
i dont know who to listen to i just need some one who is running a frst with a t3 to tell me what they've done.

any advice is appreciated.
