He's not comparable to KCM Naruto. Hashiramaq didn't compare the the KCM cloak to his chakra reserves, he compared the overall amount of chakra given to everyone to his chakra reserves and he says almost not the same as. Minato has ENOUGH chakra to enter Sage Mode that's about as much credit we can give him when it comes to reserves, then of course theres the amount given from KCM. In the end Naruto would still have far more chakra than him.

Edit

Anyway, chakra reserves has never been a deciding factor in a fight against Itachi anyway, Kisame has insane amounts of chakra and durability yet he made it quite clear that Itachi was stronger than him(the novels hint Itachi got his terminal illness some time after leaving Konoha but before he arrives in P1 at age 18). Kisame had more chakra than Killer B in the end and his battle vs Killer B and later Guy was pretty indicative of his abilities with and without Samehada.
