Default How to do i get more torque?

recently i had a 98 gsr motor swapped in my 93 civic hatch. i am running a p28 ecu, but that's not the point. . i was wondering how can i achieve more torque using bolt-ons or whatever else needed w/o using turbo, superchargers, and nos...thanks!

p.s. i have the basics intake, headers, and custom exhaust. once again thanks!

maybe ytour custom exhaust is too big. make the piping diameter smaller and u will increase backpressure and increase torque.

Skunk 2 stage 1's or 2's, Hondata, Portflow heads and dyno time. That should increase your torque a little

FI will give you torque. A supercharger is good for low-end torque. You don't need displacement.

actually, if you want to remain n/a only way to gain a good amount of torque is to build your head and add some compression. you should be able to attain around 140lbs or so. But if thats not enough, you'll definitley need to increase displacement via big bore or stroke or both. or if you want a somewhat simple alternative, just boost on your motor. that should do the trick.
