I think Jeff is working on or running some 70w HID kit, that nut.

They must have meant that the output is like 80w/100w because I have never heard of an HID kit running that high a wattage only halogens.

There are a few people who already have 70-75w HID setups. The difference between that and the oem 35w is not as dramatic as it seems. Though it's still pretty cool to see

Run completely new wiring from the battery to the bulb. But even then, you still have to worry about the bulb holder and the bowl itself.

If you want some intense light, just hit up Cliffud for some 50w ballasts, then get some bulbs on eBay.
