Default How can I get more torque out of an F22A4?

What are some ways I can get more torque out of a 238,000-mile old F22A4 without destroying the engine? I am looking at torque gains around 50 to 60 foot-pounds. I don't care much about the horsepower gains, just so long as I get the torque gains in that range.

bumping compression up to 9.6 isn't going to get you 50 lb/ft of tq. Compression and leakdown numbers would tell us what kind of condition that motor is in. A 50 shot of N2O would get you the gain you are looking for but I wouldn't recommend that on a motor with that mileage until I knew what kind of condition it was in.
