I've never found a need for a 3 port on the new age cars. Boost control is much better with the DENSO ECU.
I can be used to good effect on the classics, but even then I prefer a Dawes.....it takes me too long to map the 3 port correctly using the crappy JECS, and customers generally aren't willing to pay

Depending on who you're getting your car mapped by the may well require you to have a 3 port as it offers better boost control.
You can get it from breakers for around £40.
Dont just swap a 2port to a 3port without a map or your boost control will go bonkers (when I did this mine went off the boost gauge at 1.5bar+!).
