performance mods are a pretty big waste of money imo. your jeep will never never be fast, nor was it meant to be. (imo)
May aswell build it more capable offroad, I think you will be happier with the results

keep in mind you will lose gas mileage if you lift it.
I would do upgrade injectors
do a header .high flow-cat and a catback exhaust.... with new o2 sensors
upgrade your head lights so you can see at night...
also a Set of offroad/fog lights wouldn.t hurt also...
get front tow hooks or recovery points, and a tow hitch for a rear recovery point
get a front. t-case and gas tank skid...if your Jeep does have these..
then with the money left over get a small lift... I hope I helped you out....
also fyi Just because perforamce mods might not make your Jeep faster.. but it will improve your gas mileage
What year is your Jeep
