Acceleration/horse power Increase - 2.2L Carb - How?

I have 1984 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible with a 2.2L carburetor engine, automatic and no A/C.

The acceleration of the car is awful.

Any suggestions on how to get increased acceleration and/or horsepower?

I am not looking to invest too much money.

Thanks.
Richard

There isnt much you can do to make an n/a engine go fast, My word of advice is just deal with it, the car was not ment to be driven like a sports car, not unless you had the optional 146 HP 2.2 TURBO I, Be glad you dont have the Mitsubishi 2.6

there was a supercharger for the carbed 2.2 but they are very rare now days.
