HELP! I need Low end Torque!!!

It's taking me approx 7.9 sec to get from 0-60!!!! (clocked it this weekend) I have no low end torque in this car, I never really noticed it before but when I hit the gas from a complete stop the car acts like it's pulling 2000lbs behind it and I don't really start to get power until i'm out of first & pushing 50-55mph and then she starts pulling like she's suppose to. My car is completly stock, no mods of any kind. I really need your help guys, this is ****ing me off.

Intakes and exhaust systems are more of a top end mod. If the engine has to do less work bringing in and pushing out exhaust, that in itself frees up hp. Nitrous, turbo, or SC would be about the only way to get more low end power.

more air + more fuel = more power
