The T3 aspect largely relates to the turbine housing and wheel. So pretty much yes any T3 would fit there.

But there are dozens of compressor/impeller options with that T3 name. I'd suspect a Saab unit to be of lower performance than a 4x4 Cossie unit.

the bare cores should be interchangeable but shaft and wheel options will no doubt be different.
