physically it will bolt on, but you will need to get it remapped as Ran says, unless you want it to run dangerouly lean at peak torque

Check with a tuner, but i would have thought if u fitted it and wound the actuator out so its peaking at fuck all boost say 10psi just so u have some it should in theory be ok as it wont be boosting to more than ur T3 was running specially if its stge 3 spec.

But as i say would be best to speak 2 a tuner to be certain its a safe thing 2 do.

My T3 was boosting 22psi which i know is on its limit, the car was mapped at that but unreliable i thought that if i run a T34 at same boost it would be ok and more reliable

if ya chip was unreliable then maybe use this as a excuse to upgrade

toe knee, the idea you said wont work as the problem is the fueling under RPM, as in a t3 is on boost ealier and runs out of air earlier so the fueling map would make it rich at lower RPM and lean at high RPM

as for running a chip thats ment for 22psi at 10psi thats also bad too
