Are you really increasing CLmax with power on? Or are you accelerating the air over the wing, so while the CLmax would be constant but the lift is greater due to the faster moving air (possibly at lower AoA)??But on top of all these numbers comes another caveat: These are the power off (with power on the Clmax is much higher) stall and turn Clmax numbers at low altitudes, and if you throw the effects of Mach into the mix as well (which comes into play at higher altitudes because you're going faster in turns), or look at instantaneous turns starting at higher speeds, then the Clmax numbers will be even lower due to buffeting effects.
Another cavaet would be, you need control of the aircraft as it approached CLmax to determine the "in service" value. Planes with nasty stall characteristics make testing...challenging.
