Converting a gravity toilet to Pressure Assist just isn’t done. The tank and bowl should match. It the old bowl is either a 3.5 or 5.0, then the 1 to 1.6 gallons from a pressure assist wouldn’t be nearly enough. Perception is quite a bit.

Can a pressure flush be used on a toilet that does not flush?
If you are thinking about retrofitting a pressure assist system for a toilet that does not flush well, then it may not help, if it is even possible. A poorly designed toilet, be it either gravity flush or pressure assisted needs a decent design to work. Either can, if it is designed well.
