My evil mod plan appears to be working

It's been over a year since I implanted a 9.1 head (some porting, leveling, valve job)with it's intake on my 86 block, mated with the original 82 CIS fuel system and electronics, a custom fabed 9K fmic, and a boost assisted warm-up regulator. Add a new cat on top of that. The idea was to have a car that would respond to my short burst boost needs when I wanted, regardless of the warm to hot external temps (extremes excluded). Where I live up in a canyon, there's a long drive up regardless which way I go (ocean or valley route). On the valley side there's a redlight just at the beginning of the climb up. This driver finds it frustrating to be stuck behind a slow moving truck, van, Prius or other pokey 4 or 3 cylinder engine car for the 6 remaining miles to my home. To get that jump in front of those cars will make my day every time. With all the above grade B DIY mods done to my car, I've been able to pull away from such vehicles when I want, passing them on the 1/6 mile length two lane road just before it reduces to one lane heading uphill. I'm nearly finished with a video of my work, to be uploaded to YouTube shortly.
