on an engine that is a 4cyl, and the displacement is 1.8L with a VTEC implemented system you will not be able to get a lot of torque without some "magic work"

now by magic work I mean something to beef it up, with more displacement or forced induction.

Even with expensive NA upgrades your toque will not increase drastically, that is just the fate of a 1.8L GSR, that is also why we can rev so high, for these engines to produce power they need to rev a lot more then torqy beefy cars like the Camaro, Mustand, etc...

Get an ITR Tranny and flywheel. The shorter gearing helps to accelerate faster. Or go with a JDM FD and you'll go much more quickly through the gears.

Put more power to the wheels w/quaife or a new lsd and suspension. You could also get a new clutch and flywheel. But the best way to gain torque is w/forced induction.
