If you are really looking for a lower rpm at higher speed, change the final drive ratio and axles. The 2000-2005 Toyota Echo has a 3.562 final drive ratio. Just have a machine shop change the axle sizes to match your corolla and change the final drive gear in your current transmission. I think this was in one of my first posts on this thread .
