Can you tell is there big difference between JDM projectors and non-JDM (original? What you would call those biggrin.gif) if we compare light output.

I had DDM 35w 4,500K HID's in my standard housings then I switched to JDM projectors and only changed from a 9006 to an H1 bulb, otherwise my setup stayed the same. I immediately noticed better light output. It's not so much that projectors put out "more light" or "better light," but as smkr3w said they control the light output better. The USDM lights scatter light output, where projectors aim the light much better and have a cutoff to prevent glare from shining too high, into oncoming traffic.
