How much WHP can a '14+ 4matic take?

Hey guys, been wondering how the basic tune and downpipe E63 AMG S 4matic's have been holding up with the upgrraded power and tq. Any MCT or 4matic issues? Diff or axles issues? After reading and researching seems like the MCT trans is pretty solid and holds the power.

I would imagine that is with bigger turbos and big boost..
A basic bolt on M157 (tune, cat delete) like most guys do, i would be surprised if it was bending anything on..
