most liekly not the ballast. Are your headlights aimed identically? Also did you put both bulbs in the same direction? i.e the bar that is attached the glass of the bulb facing upwards or downwards on both bulbs

The passenger-side beam SHOULD be somewhat a little brighter and the beam should reach further than your drivers-side beam. This is normal, as the passenger-side beam is purposely aimed a little higher..
