Default need more power

Hey guys I have a 2005 TJ, 2.4l and am looking for a little more power, was thinking about a cold air intake or throttle body spacer.
Any thoughts or experience with this?
Thanks

The cold air intake will give you a little bit better throttle response but no real power, same with the spacer. If your looking for some more "get up and go" you may want to think about re-gearing.

Ya that's what I thought, but is it worth it with such a small engine? Whats the price tag on a job like that?
Thanks
