There is less power lost in a manual transmission from gear meshing and oil churning than in a planetary automatic. That loss is reflected in heat, there is a reason why the 8AT needs an oil cooler while the 6MT does not. A manual transmission also has less rotating inertia than a planetary auto which will also have it read higher power numbers on chassis inertia dyno.
