Nope no guage on the LPT GLT models. If you are driving at about 2500 RPM's, floor it and if you go OH WOW, it's a turbo. You will not have that feeling with the NA. All 97 GLT's were LPT so it probably is unless the badges are wrong. I believe is also has 56 in the 6th and 7th positons of the VIN.

No, they did make non-turbo GLT's. '97 was the first year that the GLT had a turbo.
The easist way to determine if you have a turbo is if there's a pipe running over the engine (it's a 2.5 inch black pipe from the factory). That's the air pipe running from the intercooler to the turbo. If you have an N/A engine, there's no pipe.
This will help to decode your VIN:
