M2Comp is less powerful and differently mapped than M2CS. Just like you mentioned how your M4 '15 felt more powerful in lower revs than your M4 CS. Same engines different mapping.
It off course can be the outside temps and test conditions. Weight in theory should do something but it does not in practice.
It can be anything in theory. But in practice we see bigger differences the higher the gears are getting.
On the other hand in practice we see a 16kmh higher topspeed for the CS which is a lot also for 'just 40HP' more on such a non aerodynamic car like M2.
Anyway those are the numbers we have now.

You are over reading the results. The fact is the M2C was teated in more favorable cool conditions. I seriously doubt that the M2cs will have less in gear pulling power than the M2C when tested in the same conditions.

IMO the M2cs higher top speed on the track is a combination of better traction coming out of corners and the added power, it is not the power alone.
