Can anyone tell me if the engine block and pistons of Fiat tipo 2.0 16v or thema 2.0 16v non turbo are the same as in thema turbo? Thanks.

Turbo pistons have shallow bowl (bout 8mm from memory), while the n/a pistons are flat with 2 cutouts for ex valves

there are also different types (thickness) of rings between the two

hope this helps
