You and I have 35w HID

Now that you have 35w ,would you have rather tried a 55w kit?
I'm thinking of going to a 55w setup.
But need to know a couple things.

A 10k set up will obvious have more output 55w vs. 35w but,will the color look differnt between the 2 ?
Does anyone know where there's a chart or something that will show the differances of the output between 35-55w on the k scale. say..6k,8k,10k.

Are you talking about light output (K or Kelvin) or wattage? Two totally separate things.

I believe 55W will melt the stock housings.

I was talking about the diferance in the output #'s at the same 6,8,10k
35 vs 55

so,
35w (6k) vs 55w (6k)
35w (8k) vs 55w (8k)
35w (10k) vs 55w (10k)
And since 55w will be brighter will it make a differance in color at all between the 2.
I like my 10k color I have now,I just want it to be brighter but the same color.
And basically want to know is 10k,10k or will the color change being brighter.

When bulbs are boosted their temp ratings do change. Instead of a useless purple-ish blue that you have now the color will appear more pale.
