Ahhh ok...

I think the problem won't be the turbo making too much and needing to bleed off excess exhaust through the wastegate.

It will be more along the lines of how much air your engine can move and at what rpm it's moving said air and how all of this correlates to the turbo's characteristics and how the car is driven.

Yes, you might be able to use a turbo that's a little too big and make a nice whp number on the dyno; but at at what rpm? Too large a turbo and the car is going to be a dog until the turbo starts to "come online" so to say.
