TQ > MPG
The difference is that Mustang is a back half car (I believe) and it isnt a big block, its a 351 based V8. I have witnessed/videos a pass of that monster at Norwalk, and I was 15 feet behind it next to the burnout box. It really isnt that loud once it leaves the line because its gone so quickly. 
I belive the Pro-50 guys have gone 6's @ 210mph by now, but I dont keep up extremely well with them, so I may be off.

But I think that since I saw your car, Ram, I have a new appreciation for turbo V6s

I've been saying all along V8 guys should use turbos. Just the other week while I was watching Horsepower TV, they had Gale Banks on there to show their twin turbo kit for the small block chevy. I was like it's about damn time. Turbo power!!
For those who don't know who Gale Banks is, he is a well recognized name in tuning diesel power(which are also turbo). He has been tuning turbo cars since like the 60's or 70's
