Welcome! Here are some forums that should help you turbo the KA motor:

My suggestions, if you're going to run a turbo on a stock KA motor with over 100k, I would only run 7-8 psi to be safe. With a proper tune, and good hardware you could see up to 215-ish horses and torque. A t25 can do this efficiently, but you wont see the numbers you're expecting. If you want 300 horses, you would need to run probably a T3 with A LOT of hardware (full exhaust, intercooler, plugs, injectors, tune, etc.). 12 psi would get you close to 300hp range. But dont just take my advice, read the stuff on the two websites I posted, they helped me a lot when I turbo'd my KA.

I would also suggest reading this to understand what goes into the type of gains from a turbo.
