you have to look at the exhaust manifold and see if you have smaller threaded pipe going into each port.

^ not true. It all depends on emissions laws where the car was intended to be sold. For example, I have an '09 2.2l and no SAI whatsoever (in Ohio)

Is there a hose coming from your air filter bow? It will go down toward the belt side of the engine and go to a pump. That pump goes to the exhaust manifold.
