Carberated Back To Turbo?

I have a 1987 RX-7 Turbo II. When I bought the car someone before me took off the turbo intake and put on a carberator intake and a distributer is operating the ignition. What would I need to get to convert it back to turbo?

Alright man, thanks for the help. I know there's a lot more'm going to it than just that, I'm going to have to redo my fuel and air delivery too, plus injectors and other stuff. I'm probably going to order a turbo motor off eBay or JDM importer and even if it's blown I will still have all the turbo stuff all for less than $1,500 and rebuild the block so I have a new engine to put in my car when this one finally goes out.

good plan. That would be the easiest way to do that.
