Why not just look if it is a turbo or not.

You can clearly see the turbo heatshield that is there and see part of the turbo as well.

Also you will know if it is a turbo if there is Intercooler piping.

1999 s70 Upper IC pipe
You can see the polished aluminum pipe that is the upper IC pipe.

Here is what a heatshield looks like
This is on an 850, they look the same on a s70


I don't but but it is possibly coded into the VIN like other items are. But again I don't know.

Mine has a turbo and it doesn't say TURBO on the top of the airbox.

What is circled in the last picture is the turbo heatshield, if you have that you have a turbo. You should also see part of the turbo sticking out from it as well.

If the box is there? What box? The airbox that said TURBO on one of the cars you mentioned?
