Thanks.

How much were the Showoff bulb wattage? Not what was said on the box but how much wattage it actually used is what matters. Reason why I ask is a 55 watt bulb can use 75 watts and the bulb will be brighter. Only downside is the heat the bulb generates, the lifespan of the bulb decreases dramatically and eventually you'll melt the OEM wiring.

Its like overclocking a cpu on a motherboard. Its possible by increasing the power. Only reason why a cpu can get overclocked somewhat safely is because you can put a bigger heatsink or more fans on the cpu. You can't do that on a light bulb inside the housing. Unless somebody is willing to tap some of the airconditioning cold air into the housing to cool off the bulb or builds a micro light bulb intercooler with water sprayers when idling in traffic.:thumbup:
