Tune results

I'm considering an AMG GT and on the fence as to which to go with. My question is this, if tuning a GT, GTS or GTC do they all end up with the same HP after tune?
I recently sold my E63 biturbo which was Renntech tuned. My buddy has the same car with the P30 package that comes with about 30hp more but when tuned they end up with the same HP. Is this the same for the GT's?

i had EC on my W211 and was happy with it. I then had Renntech on my biturbo and again very happy. My buddy has a GTC edition 1 tuned by Gintani which i drove and felt very strong, unfortunately I never got the chance to race him after his tune but when we raced(I was tuned he wasn’t) he was behind me by many many cars.

First thing I need to do is decide between a GT or Porsche TTS

yep, they will all end up with the same rwhp so if you can find a 2017 GT model with the upgraded interior, you can then be as powerful as the other models. Did the 1/2 mile run and they all performed the same (GT, GTS, GTR)

are you referring to the interior with the black accents instead of the silver?

No. I am referring to the Nappa Leather/Dinamica upgrade with different color stitching. You no longer can chose that option on the MB configurator for a GT and it's a $1,200 option on a GT-C. It was a $3,600 option on the MY17. It makes the interior look and feel much so much nicer

The turbos are different on the GTC and can be tuned for more power the the GTS from what I’ve read.
