Ive looked, but havent seen any signs of one, havent had it up on a jack yet though to fully inspect the underside, but no obvious signs of custom work done that I can see with it on the ground.

haha, if it were turbo'd you'd know. There would be like... piping and crap in weird places. But perhaps if you can get a camera and mount it in the engine bay somewhere so you capture JUST what sounds occur in the engine bay? I did that with my car once (manual tho).. used one of the harnesses to hold my camera in place so it didn't fall out on the road behind me.
