Let me explain what a dyno queen is, because clearly it needs explanation.

A dyno queen is a car with an unusable power band, that can lay down monster peak numbers but is useless in the real world, usually due to turbo size.

Many 1000+whp Supras, for example, are dyno queens. Big power, but killed by lag, traction issues when they finally spool, etc.

A Mustang making 880whp with a blown V8 is absolutely not a dyno queen. With suspension and slicks that car will run. Hard.

Good question, that's why I haven't yet. Around me, I can find an E63 with good miles for mid 34-36K vs 40-45K for the V's. A stock V gets about 11/18mpg before I would tear into it too, kinda scary where it would be with a cam, bolt ons and more boost.

Still got the C6 so I'm in no real hurry-
