Hello,
As i use my 316 with weber carb (32/34 dmtl) in daily traffic , i was wondering if it was possible to have more torque at lower RPM by just putting smaller intakes and putting smaller intake valves.... I know i will loose horsepower in high RPM if i do that , but i don't care. I am just wondering if i can really feel a difference by just doing those 2 things. I know adjusting the M10 from 1.8 to a 2.0 engine helps , but thats too much work and i don't think it's good for fuel consumption.

M10 will never be particularly torquey dude, they are quite a peaky engine in all OEM forms.
cheap tweak is to add a few more degrees dizzy timing and experiment with what feels best to you, be careful though, too much can cause pinking and damage to the engine.

i know it sounds weird to do that , but as i never go over 3500-4000 RPM . I tought it was more interesting to have for example 70HP at 3000RMP and 80 at 6000 than 50 at 3000 RPM and 90 at 6000. Maybe i should buy a 324TD...tough it s weird to hear diesel sound comming out of an e30
