Needing Horsepower

I just joined this and i'm hoping to find answers. I have a 2.3l 4cyl 2001 2wd 2dr XLT ranger with a K&N airfilter in the engine but i put 29" tires on it recently and the little power it had is now down to barely anything. I'm not looking to spend TOO much but enough to get what i need which would be more horse and better gas mileage. If anybody has ANY sugestions please hit me back, thank you so much

Regearing the rear end will help you get some ***** back in that thing. What is your gear ratio now?

Thats a pretty sweet box! Also..... I would for sure look into a bama tuner, that should give you some MPG and probably 10-20hp / torque.
