No argument there William.

I have my 20B here ready for rebuild along with the bed mount & PSRU so I'm pretty committed at this point.

This is just personal preference. I'm not saying it's right for everybody.

Your points supporting a 13B Turbo are some that I considered. One of the downsides of going with the three rotor is the extra rotor so extra seals, high compression rotor, P-Ported housing. 

Just so long as it runs reliably with extra power to get me off the runway.

It also depends on your goal.  If you want to fly most economically or at high altitudes, the 13B turbo setup is probably better.  If you just want to go fast, the 20B will produce as much power as a typical 13B turbo.  The 13B is cheaper and easier to find parts for (for those relatively few parts which aren't common to both).  Weight is probably similar.

No turbo for me.

I was looking at the turbo two rotor and decided (based on weight and simplicity) to go with the three rotor N/A instead. 

I felt that to add the complexity of the turbo took away more than it gave. What draws me to the rotary in the first place is the simplicity. If I add the turbo, I've lost this level of simplicity.
