I have a chance to buy a holset turbo that I would be mounting to my d16a6 motor it has a t3 flange already welded on and I'm thinking it's just to big of a turbo for such a small motor. Will it take forever to spool? would it be a waste of money? I dont know the model number but I'm just wondering if I was to mount even the smallest holset model up is it complete overkill?

 

ok i found the model number its complete overkill dont need help anymore gonna stick with a t25 or 14b

 

If it's HY35 it's going to have a silly big compressor for a stock engine, but with an effective turbine AR of .44 it will spool fine and work well.

If HX35, it really is too big.

HX25 or HX30 is a good match for a D16A6... but if you run into a good deal on HY35 that'd work for you too.
