C43 vs E43 Engine Specs

Hello everyone, as I am sure a lot of you guys have noticed the new E63 has around 400hp and by the looks of it has the same engine as the C43. I was just wondering if anyone knew if the E43 engine has any upgraded parts in it.

If that is not the case, is it just the engine tune making the difference then? And would it be safe to say that you can then tune the C43 AMG engine for more power without compromising its longevity then as they were actually designed to handle 400hp?
