Wow, the manifold and turbo hotside are one piece! I guess if you can't just upgrade the manifold or turbo itself. Either you leave it alone or you do the whole thing.

You're right huh! Why didn't they make a blue one. I guess they tried the color but found out it was ugly or something?

Many cars are coming like this from the factory. The Audi/VW 2.0L turbos are the same way, as are the 2.0L turbo ecotecs in the solstice/sky. Makes sense to from an OEM perspective; just one casting, no bolts or gaskets required. So cheaper to make and more reliable.
