Welcome.

I know nothing about French cars, but I would say watch out for the cooling system. If the person you got it off had done nothing to the cooling system with a t2 on, then putting a bigger turbo might cook your engine. Also, check what piston heads you have got, putting on a bigger turbo could affect the air flow and melt your pistons. If I was you, id put it on, make sure you have a boost control gauge and crank it down low and build it up slowly.
