Slipstream a fast truck or get used to going a bit slower than most highway traffic. It is only a 1.3 after all and it is pushing one of the most UN-aerodynamic cars available.
play with the timing, make sure the exhaust flows well, go back to stock gearing (via tyres or reduction gears) etc.
when you say "more speed" though - what's the goal?
When mine was a 1.3L with extractors/exhaust done and running 215/75r15 i had no issues doing over 120km/hr. You just have to hold the gears longer, and treat 5th as an overdrive. 4th gear @100km/hr up a hill is totally normal, as is the 4000 odd rpm you'll be doing to achieve that.
Getting a sticker that explains your situation to other drivers may defuel any road rage.
Here are a few suggestions: If I was meant to go fast, I wouldn't be shaped like a fucking brick. You can go fast, I can go anywhere. If you think I'm slow now, wait until we go uphill
