yeah i tried a 55 watt kit which honestly is more like a 45 watt kit and the other ones around ebay and the board are 35 watt.

i tried to use a oem 35 watt ballast with a oem hid bulb and no luck our projector is too small. I have messed around with retrofit on my old car and loved the result.

i imagine once i have the tl projectors all done and installed i should get a jump of about 2.5 times in lighting and spread. I am going to look into running a boosted oem ballast which should give me around 50 watts of 4,100 k.

to many it is an overkill but have the experiance of driving around with oem hid projectrs and the difference it was worth it to me.

projectors bixenon (200)
Ballast (120)
bulb (50)
labor (250)

total is $620 and we will see if it will be worth it in about 3 weeks.
