Preperation for a turbo

I have a stock B16A2 motor in my 93 eg hatchback...

After checking compression etc and making sure that's ok, what are the first things s should do in preperation for a turbo?

I've read two opinions, one which says to work on fuel supply and ignition first, then get the turbo, then work on the engine internals before upping the boost. And i've also been advised to wok on fuel and ignition, then uprate all the internals of the engine as I can afford it (lowering compression), and then get the turbo when i can afford that...

I don't like the idea of dropping any power for any length of time so i don't really want to have to lower the compression, what do people suggest?

A step-by-step kind of guide would be a life-saver!

p.s I'm looking for over 300hp from the engine (in the long run) so suggestions for good turbo set-ups etc which could get me close would help a lot.
