The "why" is in your use of the word "unique"

1. existing as the only one or as the sole example; single; solitary in type or characteristics: a unique copy of an ancient manuscript.
2. having no like or equal; unparalleled; incomparable: Bach was unique in his handling of counterpoint.
3. limited in occurrence to a given class, situation, or area: a species unique to Australia.

It looks great, but heat soak with the air/liquid IC's will kill the fun

Why? Because it looks KICK ***!

I also agree that this is what the turbo should look like.

i most definately like the front end. many customizers of the tt do this since many do not like the current front fascia. i like the stock rear of the tt, however, makes the car look unique and agressive. do not know about the effeciency of water cooling the turbos though..
