The factory HID's are set low to avoid blinding on coming drivers. This can result in less vision distance than the halogen bulb's. You might want to play with some of the aftermarket halogen bulbs first before spending big bucks for HID's.

I noticed in your profile you have an RX350. Given the right exhaust piping and some other modifications, you should be able to give yourself a lot more hp. However, there are umpteen oxygen sensors, etc. I regularly study the Highlander down here (same engine) and took a drive back in the States of an RX350, and don't think it would be too hard to do almost all of the things I did on my RX300 on an RX350, but you would no doubt be killing your resale value (something I don't worry about).
