how to increase low end torque

Those are your best bets. Start by losing weight (what you can justify anyway). Spare tyre, some sound deadening, rear seats if you don't usually carry passengers. Power steering and air conditioning if you can live without them, lighter wheels if you have heavy ones etc.

Otherwise every other option listed will probably cost you a good $3,000+

The president of JUN once said,before you even bother with power mods on vtecs,1st mods should be lighter fly/final drive/better cutch

back to the topic, increase low end torque, get bigger engine.

lower the final drive definately helps. makes such a difference on my S2000

^ you wouldnt want too short a final drive on a stock civic with only 7000rpm redline. you'll be shifting to 4th before u finish a right hand turn.

^ lol

to get more acceleration, there are 4 ways
1. you need more air/fuel this can only be done by bigger capacity engine or forced induction (as mentioned).
2. Lower gearing (as mentioned also)
3. change the bore/stroke ratio. Wider pistons with less stroke give more torque at the same capacity and RPM.
4. Lose weight

cost is prohibitive to do anything other than lose weight (from the car, that is)
