Thats some pretty decent torque from a B16 already,but the only way would be a B18 or B20 bottom end,or stroker kit.Need more displacement.No simple way.Good Luck.

can't and wont happen staying at 1.6 the only way you would get this is a SC, staying NA the only way you will get this is by increaseing displacement.
