Um...what exactly do you mean by turbo bodied? They come with the same front bumper and rear valance as the turbo cars did. They don't have the front frame brackets that the Turbo S did.

I have always wondered if they come with the turbo brakes?

The S2's are turbo cars with a NA engine. And yes they have turbo brakes.

The 2.5 16v's are regular NA bodies.
