I am sure that someone with FAR FAR more experience than me will answer soon but here goes my 2c worth. Firstly, a picture ALWAYS helps :) Secondly, is your rotor magnetic (steel) and do you have a 2nd rotor (without magnets) spinning on the other side of the stator? From your description, it doesn't seem like you have a 2nd rotor. If possible, attach a 2nd steel rotor because even if it doesn't have magnets on it, it still helps to complete the magnetic circuit and maximise your flux.

Other than that, I cannot think of much off of the top of my head as most things would involve altering your coils ...
