I ran my turbo on an xr3i pump for about 2 years mate with no problems just think you will be limited to what power you can run as the xr3i pump and turbo pump have different fuel delivery rates.

You should get to 200bhp but that will prob be the limit,the pump should fit in the cradle if not just get a turbo cradle or make one,you may find the turbo pump is a bit fatter thats why it wont fit hope this helps mate.
