Default what should i do next...

So... I just turned 16 and I've had my Xjs for a couple a years now and I've done a few minor things here and there, but now I wan to get serious. Im in Iowa and there ain't squat for places to four wheel so this is a more of a, I got a jeep and you dont, kinda thing. Here's a list of what I've done so far: full exhaust system with 2.5" pipe all the way through, full injectors, spark plugs, cold air kit, add aboost leaf kit, new calipers, 30 in tires, 15 x 8 pro comp wheels, and a serious sound system (and I mean serious). Ill admit it I like to drive fast. I really hate how the good ol jeep really gets to leaning in the turns. Im not the idiot that races through residential areas @ 100 so don't go hating, I pick the time and place semi responsibly. I would like to add power and increase the handling as much as possible. What would you guys recemend? Needs to be somewhat inexpensive cuz I only make like 5k a year...

Your add a leaf lift kit is probably why your xj rides like crap
Cold air intake is the only other 'cheap upgrade' that can increase hp
And you will lose a decent amount of acceleration and fuel economy with the larger tires
Sounds like youre building an awesome xj brah
