I was going to do just that but the drives are the expensive part of that equation. Some people tell me that the XR drives can handle it but i'd have to really baby it. I don't beat my boat but if you run in some snotty stuff, sometimes the drives pop out and growl no mater how easy you go. You run the bay , you know what I mean. Got any ideas? Converting to 6's would really cost and i don't think i would ever recover that money in the resale or even a fraction of that cost. Someone once told me if you want to make your boat faster, go buy a faster boat.

Mine runs 97 with Whipples, XR's, no boxes and 5 blades. Im sure if I switched to 4 blades I would be at 100, but I prefer the better mid range the 5 blades give me. I if put shorties, boxes and 4 blades, who knows?? I would think 105 +.
By the way, the guy a few docks down from me has a kevlar 382 with warmed up 700's and NXT's and I think he runs 105 or so..
