Default 1982 2.3L needs help

Well i do not know what is going on with my engine i replaced the Solenoid, Ignition wires, Battery and it started right up. 4 or 5 tries later done. it shakes but just wont seem to kick over. I am gettin a little tired with it. i am gunna just replace the distributer cap but if that dont do it i am going to try to find a whole new wiring harness. unless there is a better solution. Also how do i get more Hp out of the little 4 banger. i am taking catyletic convertor out for a little more because on the internet they say a stock 2.3L 4 cyl runs at top 88Hp. any way to boost this ALOT higher without NOS.
