Power steering line reroute is a basic mod that is very helpful on even a stock location setup, and as for etc...again, any big turbo setup will require a variety of etc mods, whether it is rotated or stock location.
My point is that for the amount of money, time and effort, a rotated setup seems like the obvious route...unless you want your setup to look somewhat stock...

The same old argument for stock location vs rotated. We all know that when it comes down to it a big stock location turbos still needs a downpipe, an inlet, an intake, and an uppipe is a good option as well.

The real argument for stock vs. rotated is whether you're piecing together mods vs. doing it all at once.
True if I was to do a stock location vs. rotated setup all at once from a 100% stock car, I would not argue against going rotated.
But say you've already got a CAI, turbo inlet, DP, UP from a stock turbo. Or you've got a one-piece header and uppipe that would need to be modified a lot to do rotated - those cases you'd find it much easier to just go stock location.
And this is the situation most people are in. There's relatively few guys who just throw on big power from a stock or near stock setup

Definitely good points. I guess I just prefer to go through the trouble of selling off my stock-location parts, so that I ensure I have the cleanest, easiest to install and maintain, and best setup in the long run.
Also, I managed to buy a used 30r kit in excellent condition for around the same price as a brand new stock location 30r+ sized turbo. My 30r had about 100 miles on it when I bought it
Cheers!!
