Sluggish 4runner

Hello I have a 94 4runner and it seems sluggish at high end speeds. Does anybody know how to fix this. It is also in need of a pcv valve. Could that be the problem? Thanks

by high speeds... you mean? these trucks weren't designed to go fast... I have a 92' 4runner with a 5 speed, and its a dog.

5th is an over drive gear meant for cruising at constant speeds mostly. If you have larger than stock tires and didnt re-gear, then its going to become more or less useless with the bigger you go.
