Custom intake?

that's about the easiest and most entertaining method. Second would be a good low end cam. After that, you really need more displacement. The 3.1 isn't all that limited in the torque department though, I think it has like 180 at the flywheel. Some longer runners would help a little (working on an idea for plenum spacers, let you know how it turns out). For 500 bux you could have really nice torque on demand...nitrous dude, nitrous

long tube headers will help your torque too. pacesetters and pf&e's are both longtube.
