Please give Thoughts

Neither will give you any significant amount of power. A good tune up however will make the jeep run better which means better more efficient use of power.

Do a cold air intake or if you can find a place that does exhausts that cheap get an exhaust! 2.5" pipe with a nice muffler and maybe even a hi-flow cat

TB spacers usually are the mod that says to give horsepower and MPG gains but in reality gives you mostly just a little whistle noise.
But another mod that i think is about $100 or maybe even cheaper is a bored out throttle body i believe its a 62 or 63MM and works best with a cold air intake, and is a nice cheaper power gaining mod

If you need a tune up, then thats what you should do. The other stuff is a luxury
