What causes torque to be increased?

I know I sound like a dumb blonde but what would cause the regular TL to have a torque increase from 216 to whatever? I just drove the 3.5 Altima and that thing has GGGOOOOODDDD pickup

Larger displacement or force-induction.

Thumbs down

put our 3.2 engine in a elongaded civic and you too would have some mad acceleration.


in short the Altima is just a tin box with an engine.

More air and fuel, or less weight. A V8 on a roller skate will win every time.
