depends where you go, who does the job, what complications they encounter.

If you want to just enjoy your FC and have a 'somewhat reliable car that dosent destroy your pocket when you go to the pump even though it will slightly anyways' keep it N/A.

ask yourself, do you have rotary specialists neer your home? (we have none neer us, thus all rebuilds swaps have to be done 'in the backyard')

You can still have a lot of fun and smoke your average 4 cyl with an N/A,

however a turbo has much more potential for power output in the long run
can you afford it? i cant

I assume you have checked the FAQs and read all the associated links? The process is covered in great detail in a number of writeups. You can then judge whether or not you want to take on the project.

^+1. I got lucky and my motor came with 100+ compression on both rotors.

If you're swapping into an N/A it's better to use the N/A harness instead of a TII. Reason being that you will run into problems with the charging system and etc.
