new 1988 gxl needs some kick

hey guys,
this is my first time posting on this site, long time reader tho. I just bought a stock 1988 GXL FC. Initial power isnt too bad but at higher speed it lacks pick up. ive got 4000 left over for spending money on the car. any suggestions?

In the archive, there is a thread "How To Make A Beefy NA". Otherwise, turbo swap.
