you could, but not much. the 305 really wasnt made to produce alot of power. i dont know the exact number but it wont take much boost to pop that motor like a baloon. you would be better off doing some boltons and a cam for some more power.

a kit is probably going to be hard to find. you may have to have it custom made, and there are some fabrication companies out there but it will be spendy.

a kit your not going to find... but i would be glad to help you with the steps to turbo it... since it's a 305 and really wasn't meant to hold alot of pressure i would do this for a decent sized power increase... buy you something along the lines of a 25mm trim turbo, a short header for 1 side of the motor or the other, mount the turbo and the bit of acc. that go with it and you've got easy 10psi boost from a single turbo with very little work if interested further send me a message i've been boosting engines for a while now whether it's a domestic or import i'm a self proclaimed boost *can't say g word*
