Sorry to say, but i think it's bogus to believe that the TT-S is getting 300 hp.
The EA888 2.0TFSI engine have 211 hp, with a small turbo.
To make it a 300 hp EA888 engine they have to do a lot of internal upgrades and put on a bigger turbo.
It's more likely that the TT-S EA113 engine will stay in for a while, and get replaced by something else in the future.

There is no harm in living in hope.
In any case the EA888 engine is capable of 300ps without any internal mods, at least that was what I was told some time ago, whether Audi would chose to increase the output at all if this engine ends up in the TT/S is debatable, personally I doubt they would move the output at all but who knows.
Maybe we may see the 2.0TFSi engine being dropped for something else with the potential of 300ps and possibly a sweeter exhaust note.
Search and you will find the truth.

Everything is possible, and yes there is no harm in living in hope.

They even tried to keep the Haldex2 -> Haldex4 switch secret to the customers so that current buyers wont get upset. I don't think they'll upgrade the TTS engine for similar reasons. Well maybe they'll change it at some point (facelift?) but whether they increase the output remains to be seen.
A chain driven engine (EA888?) is now being listed for TT And A3 on the tech info.
Code CCZ(A) - 200ps or (147kw) so no Hp increase here
Production began June '08
