you can also not bother getting a jdm engine for a ridiculous price and get a nissan sentra ser motor it's the sr20de(t maybe) and it is the same block as sold in japan minus the turbo. the other benifit to this is that the ser already has LOTS of aftermarket parts through both Stillen Steve Millen Sports Cars and J.Wolf Technologies.

i had a sentra with the 1.6 and i have to say that it is hands down a better motor than any honda equivlent. (no it does not have the same hp/L stock but it's potential is far greater.) the bottom ends are ROCK solid (the japanese conter part puts out 240 hp and is often bumped up far more than that on stock internals) the top end is sweet and it uses a timing chain instead of a belt (they almost never go)

to answer you question NO that car is not turbo unless the guy you buy it from already put one on. also keep in mind this is not that rediculously low of a price (don't get me wrong it'll take some looking to find the same price but for 1-2grand you can find one with a mint body that runs fine).

Also just out of curiousty is it a coupe hatch or convertable
