As we know, turbulence is 3d.

What are the implications of 2d versus 3d modeling?

If we use LES for the 2d, can the results be trusted?

No...this question has been posed also in other posts. The key is that in 2D you have no stretching. The only case for a quasi-2D turnbulence is for geophysical large scale flows.
FOr engineering problems, You can only model some 2D flows with statistical averaging (RANS)
