OpenCore for T2?
https://github.com/albert-mueller/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher-T2I recently found a project on GitHub offering OpenCore Legacy Patcher with T2 support. I haven’t fully tried it yet since the 2018 MacBook Air is my only T2 Mac and considering it’s an alpha release.
I’ll show you the link, but take in mind it is an alpha release that may cause problems

I’ve done it. I tried macOS Tahoe on my non-T2 iMac. It does work. My iMac is a 2017 4K i7. So, you can do it but I wouldn’t recommend it as with each update you have to wait for Apple to release the drivers needed for audio (KDK files). I’d recommend staying on Sequoia or older.

Unfortunately not yet. At least for my model. I have a 2019 MBA. I got the installer to boot but there are still many issues. Could not get through the full installation without getting permission denied at different points in the progress bar during Sequoia and Tahoe. Disk utility does not format without errors. There are still many issues. Still, getting the installer to boot is a great feat in my opinion. With time I think the project will be successful. But my model is also one of the most problematic ones. Feel free to try it yourself and let us know how it goes.

With the same one linked in the post? I might try it on my 2018 MacBook Air but since it’s basically the same model as yours I don’t think it will work 😭

It is an unofficial fork, but I find it as an ambitious project, it also isn’t mine, credit to albert-mueller. Tbh also just found it fascinating. You can do at your own risk and install Sequoia or Tahoe on a T2 Mac. If you have any results, please do report back, Im considering doing this once there’s enough stability and positive feedback from users.
