Default Mazda b2200 diesel gearing question

Hi from the uk, new here and just purchased my first ever mazda, a 1992 b2200 2.2 diesel, and i have to say what an absolute peach! Seems extremely well put together I was a bit skeptical, having spent alot of my life driving Germans cars nd classic american pickups i was pleasantly surprised! Anyway the reason I'm here is for some advice, as great as the truck is I'm am flat out at 55mph in 5th gear revving fairly high, I'd love it to sit comfortably at 75-80mph to make it a little easier on main roads etc, what options do I have? Bigger wheels, different gearbox? I'd love it to be a bit faster also maybe add a turbocharger at a later date but don't want to do that until the gearing is sorted as it will be wasted!

Any advice is greatly appreciated
