Yes, OEM tire to OEM tire, the AWD car will have a big advantage and much more consistent launches.

Where the AWD AMG will shine is during every day driving from a dig where there is zero to limited pre meditation and prep. The average Joe will just lay down the pedal and go. But the overall AWD S numbers of the AMG are not yielding higher traps speeds so I would guess the AWD powertrain is sucking up power up top. I would think the M would beat this car from a roller- 40 to 160.
As for the tune- Nick you have the proper mentality which is "pay to play". If it goes boom (which it wont) then you understand the consequences. Ive been doing this for well over a decade.
