So I know that mainly the "feeling" of going fast comes from higher levels of torque. What mods can I do to my GSL that would increase torque as well as HP, keeping in mind that I dont want to destroy my low end

thanks

Throw a B18c V Tec in it

Go to Paul Yaw`s website and adjust the timing to his specs.It will increase torque and hp.I did it on a friends 30k `82 7, and you could feel the difference, he is still running the hermal reactor exhaust manifold
