2018 GLE AMG 43 SUV

I decided to wait for the 2018 GLE AMG 43 to come out. The 2017's had a 363 hp engine. The 2018s are being build with the 385 hp engine, according to the website. Does anyone have this engine, and if so, so how is the performance and gas mileage.

Is this the same "block" as the 340 engine and the 362 engine, but tuned differently by AMG with a different chipset?

If I was to guess I would say the engine is exactly the same engine with just turbo boost increased slightly in the ECU programming.

What I want to know is for us 2017 43 AMG owners will MB upgrade our ECU with a 2018 Flash?
