Regearing transmission 5th gear?

I'm trying to maximize fuel economy in my Yaris. I have several aerodynamic mods planned, but one thing that always bugs me is the high RPMs on the highway. I think that 5th gear on this car is way too close to 4th. Has anyone tried regearing to make 5th gear bigger?
