what kind of mods you got done to it?
what intake manifold are you using? if you're using the stock GSR manifold you should think about hooking up the secondaries.

if you dont already have the secondaries hooked up, then make them functional. they make a nice improvement in the bottom end and mid range.

gearing always makes up for a lack of torque. a 4.7 final drive might make it feel like it has more torque.

a good 4-2-1 header like a Toda might help too.

I like people like you

"it has NO bottom end and it pisses me off"

What were to happen if you were to drive a D series like mine? You'd have a mental breakdown or something.

What do you have done to it already? And like they said, if you don't have the secondary butterfly hooked up - hook it up.

the stock IM with working secondaries makes for awesome torque BUT, if you want REAL torque....you have to either:
-bore it
-stroke it
-up the compression
-any combination of two options
-all three options
