N/a to a turbo engine

I just recently bought 2 13b 6 port engines a trans. I'm wanting to turbo and port and do some nodding to it. I'm wanting atleast 300 whp, more would be nice but still drivable. What would I have to do to obtain this? They are na engines?

Copied directly from the FAQ:

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:
