Superchips Flashpaq(or similar PROGRAMMER, not tuner), throttle body spacer perhaps, cold air intake, bicycle wheels, no hardtop/doors/spare bodies.....sure there are a couple other things I forgot to mention.

From what I have read the programmer is the way to go. I have a throttle body, K&N drop in filter, and an exhaust but I have never felt an increase in power. I wish I would of went with the programmer

No, not a tuner....that won't help performance as much as a programmer. Not sure if a tuner will help with performance at all to be honest. That's the big problem, people confuse a tuner, such as the AEV ProCal with a Programmer....they are 2 totally different products.

x2 on what previous posters have said. I had a great ongoing experience with my Hypertech Max with the recent update. Definitely saw an increase in power, torque and mpg. . .

the RoadRace Motorsports Power Pack is the answer. Toatally plug N play, pretuned and it is ECU dealer safe. 2007-2011 JKs , smooth powerband, totally noticeable power, increase gas milage,
My JK is on 37s 5.38s full armor trail gear and all. I can pull mountain grades with ease , pass cars for lane changing and im averaging 17mpgs on my 09 JKU.
