Can't wait to see what they gain from tuning
According to the official literature it's same HP more TQ

AMG GTS 375kw - 650nm
AMG C63S 375kw - 700nm
On another note the bigger torque number is one advantage of the MCT trans vs twin clutch type transmissions as used in the AMG GT, twin clutch transmissions are more restricted on the torque they can handle vs traditional auto transmissions.
AFAIK the new MCT has been built to handle 1000nm continuous running, so tuning will be more welcomed with the drivetrain of the new C63 than what it will be with the AMG GT

It was written in one of the many articles I've read to date where it also went into some specific upgrades of the new MCT, things like 2 additional added clutch packs etc. to handle the extra torque.
I'll have to go do some searching and hopefully find it and put it up

HP as far as it's been quoted is the same, only torque number is greater.
It's all just official released literature numbers, as we all know most if not all new Euro performance vehicles are underrated these days compared to the official released numbers, we need to wait and we'll eventually see more true figures emerge as more people will eventually run dyno tests on these new models.
What will be interesting is when we see this new 4.0ltr TT V8 installed in other new model platforms such as the new E Class AMG's and see what state of tune they will be running, without a doubt the numbers both power and torque will be higher.
