FW5 upgrade: watts are now higher than previously

Hello
I've just load FW 5.13 into my newton+.
I tested it on two rides power numbers are different from rides performed before I upgrade my newton. Because I'm curious about things are working, I'm always riding with newton and a powertap hub.
I observed that on the two last rides realised with the new FW5, power numbers approximately are 6-7% higher than previously.
Previous cal ride carried out in februar 2016 is always running in my newton. However I suspect that the autocalibration feature changed how things are computed by the newton.
The two first attachments are ride performed with the FW5 upgrade.
The last attachment is a ride performed before the upgrade.
Finally I join the profile extracted from the newton
