As torque is a function of cylinder pressure, the way to increase torque is to stuff it with more air.
And/Or
Have the air (+ fuel, of course) burn at a slightly earlier piston location (advance ignition) so it expands while the cylinder is at higher compression (yet more pressure) thus ramming it down harder (torqueing the crankshaft)
The problem with torque building is when you get to the upper limits for a given engine combination/configuration.... knock, knock, knock
