sure as long it bolts up to the manifold and clears the motor.. you may also have issues w/ downpipe being positioned in a different way also

within reason.
in theory if you have a t-3 flange you can run any t-3 turbo combo t3t4, strait t3, etc.

I'd recommend a T3 compatible exhaust manifold if you want the greatest flexibility in choosing a turbocharger. This way you can retain the same charge pipes and downpipe when swapping turbos.

It's some of the non-T3 based stuff that comes with a T3 flange that gets a bit wierd.
