What am I missing?

So here's the deal. I picked up an 89 vert a few months back and have been in love with it since day 1. Being the type of person that can't leave well enough alone, I decided to do a turbo swap. I started looking into a jdm motor. In the middle of my research I came across an 89 gtu that someone had started a tii swap and decided he was in over his head so I stole it er: bought it for $250. I ran a compression test and all six faces had the needle hitting around 110 psi. With the compression numbers that high I considered just dropping it in but have decided its out, who knows how long its been sitting, etc so a rebuild is under way. Now come the questions. The motor is definitely an S5, and is [/B]almost[/B] complete. I have done a search but can't find a list of "required peripherals" for the swap. I have the ecu, harness, and afm, but I noticed it's missing the turbo duty solenoid and pressure sensor. Can anyone tell me what else I need in my quest for more speed! Also can any of the "peripherals" from my N/A motor be used? Thanks for the help ahead of time.

See the 2nd gen FAQ. Complete parts lists for TII swaps can be found there.

I have searched the forum everywhere and the only thing I am finding is tii rear diff, driveshaft, axles, tranny and complete motor. Problem is I dont know exactly how complete my motor actually is when it comes to sensors, duty solenoid etc. If anyone can guide me to where it can be found it would be great.

Can I swap a Turbo engine/Jspec engine/13BT/etc into my Non Turbo?
Yes, check these links:

What Turbo kits can I add onto my non turbo RX-7?
There are no longer kits formally made at the time of this post, however there are companies from time to time that do make available non turbo to Turbo Kits. Because most of these companies stop building the kits, or go out of business in short time, it is impossible to keep active links for them.

Most people that turbo a non turbo make their own kits:
Using the stock TII turbo, exhaust manifold with spacer, NA intakes and NA ECU:
