For the M5CS I am really hoping that they some how figure out a way to improve engine/oil cooling. I did the Advanced M School at Thermal last November and couldn't do more than 2 laps on the big track without the M5 going into limp mode. Was really disappointing.

I would guess that the M5CS would have a marginal power increase (M3CS was only 10hp more than the M3 Comp).

Some weight reduction and slight aero would be cool, but again, it's just to hard to guess.
We ran the M5 (not comps) at that Advanced M. I've driven the M5 Comp at Sonoma recently and it didn't have the same issues on track
