How to run multiple node app instance (more than CPU core) on same machine?

I have a server with 4 cpu core and 8 gb ram. I have a node app. I'm running my app with PM2 module in cluster mode. It works fine. But since I have 4 cpu core pm2 runs 4 instances. Even when I force it to run more than that, performance stays same or even worse sometimes.​When I monitor my app, I realized my app doesnt use more ram than 500MB(at peak times, generally it uses 250 - 300mb ram). So 8gb*0.5gb = 16 node instance. and if I leave 1gb for OS, I'm thinking to run 14 instances.​So How can I run multiple node instances in same machine and increase performance.Is this even possible? I'm total noob. If you can guide me, that would be great. Thanks
