Anyone running a 8000K HID? I like the color but was just wondering what the light output is like.
 
I don't have the 8000k's, but I have the 6000ks and my friend has 8000k. Its noticably dimmer. But head to head with halogen, it's bright as hell. I would say its a bit too blue though. My other protege has 4000k, and that is way brighter than the 6000k.
 
I've got the 8000k's and I'm satisfied with the output. They are fairly bright and really help out in not so lit areas.
 
I got 4500k's and I absolutely love the light output and the look.

I have 6000K TechOne kit from Protephile here on the forums.

I almost went with 7000K, then did some research about max light output and so forth. Turns out that past approximately 6000K, the light output starts to decrease, going down as your K's get higher .. not to mention that if your headlights get TOO blue/purple, you start attracting attention from cops.

I'm very, very happy with both the light output and the color of mine. Bright as hell and an awesome 'diamond' hue -- you can see both blue and purple, depending on the angle.
 
TechOne where can you get this kit at? i think i remember reading somewhere you bought yours off a member?
 
i have the 6000k ebay kit the previous owner installed.. Have a blue tint and definitely give you enough light on not-so-well lit areas
 
Thanks turbolife im gonna try to get one for my msp since I already have the cf lip I think it would look sweet w cf grill..
 
Not hard at all. Most kits are simple plug and play. I know mine was and it did not take long whatsoever.
