Welcome!
The 4.0 not have enough power for you? It has 207hp and 238 lb/ft which is enough to tow around 6,000lbs.
There isn't really any cheap upgrades to any of the ranger engines, but you can start out by taking your air silencer our of your air box to make it a custom CAI.
If you want to get noticeable performance out of it get a supercharger or chip it.
You can also regear to 4.10s which might help it feel torquier.

Re: hey guys a real noob here lol
Well I've heard mixed reviews on tuners... So I think I'll opt out on that.. I ordered a k&n air charger which I hope will help on the throttle response while towing my boat... And the super charger is to much $$$ for what I use it for .. Shouldn't the air charger and maybe exhaust later help some though????

Air charger?
Our trucks come stock with a cold air intake... You just wasted a lot of money...

Almost as bad as my bass boat forum .... U research something and the members are split right down the middle on every topic... So the k&n wool do nothing according to half... Others say: better throttle response, better sound,power, mpg ??????????
