If you change your gears its either gonna get slower or slower (topspeed or acceleration is gonna drop) best thing you can do in your case is build your motor to improve your acceleration and put taller tires or gears for high topspeed

Fastest I've ever seen a Toyota pickup/ 4runner go was 85mph and it was on a uhaul trailer behind us during the end of hurricane Francis (broke down In alabama after evacuating from Charlie)

Auto and 31" you should have 4.56 min but 4.88 work good up to 33", Taller 5.29
Auto is really overdrive.
Manual, 31"-33" 4.56, 33"-34" 4.88, 35" 5.29
I have 4.56 and 33" on a 92 Excab man 4x4 longbed 3.slow 300K mi and 90 mph is not hard and just did a 400 Mi trip this last weekend half being bumper to bumper stop and go traffic and averaged 16 MPG.
The only Mods, SRS
Don't be afraid to rev the engine.
