Replace your spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor, as well as your plenum, timing set, cat and O2 sensor if none of that has been done. Then you can think about a tuner.

Economy and mud toy don't exist together.
Sorry. lol

SCT is the best there is, but they're currently MIA awaiting the x3 version to come out.

If you do have a cam/head setup and need an x2 prior to the x3 release hit me up. I have some x2's

Your best bet would be to get into engine mods. You might build up a junkyard 360 for performance, tune it. Then just go easy on the loud pedal when you take it on the street.

SCT or SuperChips tuner. Without knowing what the new SCT is capable of changing, as of now the SuperChips also does speedo correction for larger tires.
