Default Rotated setup

Can you go rotated using a 20g turbo and would you benefit much compared to standard position using this turbo or is it only beneficial for big power builds?
cheers

Dont see the point to be honest.

Certainly on a gains made to work/cost involved ratio it wouldnt be worth it.

Thanks for the reply Daz.
Its was something i was thinking about while having a few drinks
Forget about price though would the gains be noticeable say for instance on a 2.5?

20G on 2.5L will be nice.

I have mapped one H + S/ S4U twisted stock turbo kit fitted to 2 different vehicles and 2 different turbos.
The first owner of the kit had it on a 2.5 fitted with a 20G and running 1.5 bar flat it made 435bhp and 460lbft on a splash of meth. He removed it when swapping to his new 2.1 stroker and S206 Billet combo.
He sold it to owner 2 who was having difficulty with his 321T Billet, it seemed as though his cheap under manifold inlet pipe was sucking shut under boost, so I recommended purchasing and fitting the twisted kit to remove the issue permanently.
It did just that and at 1.6 bar flat the car made 465bhp and 490lbft on a splash of meth.
I like the kit overall as it makes for a lovely straight inlet tract from filter to turbo, got to be a good thing in my eyes.
