I imagian it would be far too small, and quite restrictive up the revs

T3 isn't really enough info to know, for instance there are T3's for 1.6ltrs or 2ltrs, oem spec, then custom wise the list is endless.

I used to run a GT3/7, which was a T3 with a bigger blower, not a GT37, they're huge! It wasn't big enough for 10psi over 5k but ripped hard from 1.8k. It could handle 7psi all day on a 2.5 but that was the limit. A 2.7 would need a T4 really or a proper turbo like a Holset HX35, or a H1C like me :D

There is so much more to add into the equation, more info on setup, power goals, budget etc will help the masses spread the knowledge 8)
