getting more than 200crank hp (even 190) from a KA is pretty tough honestly, but you can get close.
I would do:
aluminium pulleys
cone air filter
header (4-2-1)
minimum 2.5" exhaust mandrel-bent (ka loves the 3" too but its kinda loud, performance is pretty much equal) with high-flow catalytic converter
and the most important, ecu retune with high octane, so you go get the most of the modifications
gotten that pretty much from here :

he got ~165 wheel hp with 106 octane fuel
ive seen guys putting ITB's on the KA too, so thats something else to do (but expensive)
after that you can swap the cams, but thats REALLY not cheap and the gain is not that impressive
going this route, sure you can get some hp from the engine, but it'll be maxed out. after that, if you want more hp, you have no choice : turbo it or swap it.
