transmissions. how to tell the difference? (S4 vs S5, NA vs Turbo)

hi
I was wondering if there's any way to tell the difference between transmissions visually.
ive got some im trying to distinguish and want to know if there's a way to visually tell if theres a difference between a NA and turbo transmission and between S4 and S5.
If you have pictures to point out differences that would be great too.

Please let me know I appreciate the help.

Thanks

The bellhousing bolts onto the turbo tranny, It is made on the n/a. also the turbo is a ribbed design where as the n/a is smooth. Sorry I don't have any pics. Don't know if there's an easy way to tell the difference between S4 and S5.

The NA has one fill and one drain plug, T2 has a fill plug and check plug and drain plug. NA trans has cheap, old looking wiring coming off of the 5th/reverse/NSS switches, T2 has connectors similar to what are found on the TPS and AIT sensors etc.
