Upgrade price is not set yet. I will see how long the CNC program is to convert current covers over.

The manufacture rates it 100hp more crank...so probably 50-75rwhp.

They are only available up to 78mm. As for results, their is a customer of ours trying one that has a TC76 already and bought a TC78 as an upgrade. He is taking it to the track to do the testing.....no dyno, but hey the track is probably more real world anyway. And yes they will fit directly in the same place as the current TC76.
