I'm going to put my money on 2.2L I'm almost sure thats what you have.
As far as turbo goes, if you hear a whinning or a whirling sound and it has
some pretty good power for a four banger then you probably have a turbo. If
you have a turbo it's on the exhaust manifold at the back of the engine
compartment between the engine and firewall.

Turbo will also have a vaccum gauge inside.

Its either a 2.2 or 2.5, either way their almost both the same as far as
external parts
