Default 1994 IDI Question

My dad may be buying a 1994 F 350 and From the pics we cat tell if its a turbo diesel or not. Being a 94 and not a power stroke it should be a turbo right? Here is a pic of the engine and a pic of the sticker cover.


It doesnt look like it has one.



Thanks for any help.
Oh, Its on a government auction site so there really isnt a direct email.

uppon further review the non-turbo uses a round carb style airfilter like that one has. the turbo one has a square one that fits in an airbox before the turbo. that one is a non-turbo.

Thanks. I didnt think it was a turbo but I wasnt sure because it has the water pump and the vac pump missing. So, I didnt know if maybe the turbo had been robbed too.

no they are actually ATS kits....taken directly from ATS's website......

1983 to 1994.5 Ford 6.9 and 7.3L Diesel Turbo Kit
The ATS Aurora 2000 Wastegated Turbo System has been the premier turbo charger system chosen by the professionals for over 15 years now. Ford motor company chose ATS in 1994 for a reason, Ford wanted the best and that's what they got. In 1994 Ford installed the ATS turbo kit on every engine produced from the factory. The ATS turbo kit uses a large bypass valve that is engineered to accommodate the engines exhaust gas volume allowing for maximum turbo boost with out the concern of over boosting the high compression engine. By using a large bypass valve and a large final exhaust expansion chamber we maintain very low exhaust backpressure. This low backpressure results in increased combustion efficiency. Combined with recommended fuel settings a 50% increase in rear wheel horsepower can be achieved. Recently the ATS turbo system has been redesigned to utilize the Aurora 2000 turbo charger that has become so popular in the demanding turbo Diesel market. There is no other turbo kit that delivers the rapid response and power that the Aurora 2000 offers.
