Still, I wouldn't push your luck. MSP or one of the local units sitting on an on-ramp are going to eventually tag you if you plan on hovering between 90MPH -110 MPH. Keep it around 80 MPH like everyone else on the morning commute and "don't be that guy" who has to set the pace at 100+ MPH. You can usually get away with that stuff on E-696, but it's not a good idea to try that stuff on E-96.
Best solution: Get up a few minutes earlier in the morning if you find yourself running into morning rush-hour traffic. It will help you be on time for work & you won't have to bother with trying to bob & weave through morning traffic.
As far as mods go, there's plenty of things you can do to your '94 5.0 engine in order to beef up the horsepower & torque...I'm sure some of the 94/95 guys will chime in. Keep the shiny side up.
