Make sure none of your plug wires are touching the headers, other then that change out your coil to an MSD not expensive and might as well go all the way.

My 93 was kinda sluggish also until I added the MSD6 Ignition box. Right way I noticed a major difference in the trottle response. But yeah I would replace the coil with an MSD and possibly the ignition module itself too. Run some injector cleaner through it and you should be good. Just a ?, is your air filter nice and clean?
