His grammar is better then most people on the forums.
I can send you a few links if you want some more research to go off of.
To answer your question your going to need a fuel pump, I suggest Walbro. Some fuel injectors, at very least 440cc. An intercooler and piping. The turbo itself, maybe a T3/T4 turbo. As well as a manifold and downpipe. I'd go with a log manifold for simplicity and cost effective. A 3" exhaust system is "recommended." A blow off valve and wastegate.. As for tuning, you should find a tuner and ask what they prefer to tune with.
There is a lot to get into, take a look at the link posted, if you need more research links PM me and I will send you a few.
Edit:
And personally with 222k on the motor, I wouldn't risk it. Even if your seals are good, your bearings are probably nearing the end of their life. Maybe rebuild the engine and then turbo it?
The cost all depends on what quality your going with. At very least expect to spend $1500.

It's all in the tune. I can't really say for switching off HP like that.. to get to 300 you would need a bit more into it. Bigger injectors, probably a better manifold, ect ect.
I've heard talk about needing a new MAP sensor and possibly a catch can setup, but you'd better let one of the guys that know a bit more chime in about that. Not to mention 300hp isn't as reliable on stock internals as 230hp.
