I hear many people say XR drives stand for explode and replace. You have to bleed money to run #6 drives, so what is a person to do?

Arneson makes a ASD7 bravo conversion that is a lot of bang for the buck with how many parts it comes with, how strong it is, how much speed you gain. Closest thing to a number six out there for less money. They also offer a ASD8 which is better then a number 6 but closer in price.
