You can add a super or turbo charger.. that's about the only thing that will increase your HP besides a motor swap..

You should look into a tuner/programmer. I have a diablo predator tuner and it woke my jeep up. It's amazing.....

Lol I knew people were going to say super charger lol, I'm just looking for something subtle but still helps, there is no programmer for the 2011's ? Does the 70th anni change or it's just the same lol

Also what intake programmer do you guys suggest, and or a throttle spacer ? I'm just learning all this good stuff thanks for not flaming me lol

Just get a drop in performance air filter and replace the muffler. That's going to be about as good as it gets on a 2011 for the time being. The other thing of course is gears although nothing was provided about current tire size or what gears you currently have.
