90/100 trigger nossle is pointless unless you have a big enough hose to supply the water.

Simply put the more voltage you get to your lights the brighter they will be by a long shot, to do this you need fatter shorter wires

higher wattage globes use more current so your voltage ends up being lower so dimmer, vicious circle

mate go buy some philips 80% globes, cost about $60 and so far its the best thing i have done. more distance, slighly whiter light. also are you light adjusted properly?? if they are shinning to close to the car, adjust them to be a bit further out.

just not to far as it will blind others
