                      I think you need to go 3500, I don't think the watt difference has much to do with it.

                        You can try my 55watt ballast to check but I don't think it will solve your issue. Chances are that your bulbs just suck, esp if they are DDM.

                          There was a scandal with DDM with them using the same bulb for every order within a certain hue/watt/whatever "4300k" means. Order 3500k-6000k(?) and they will give you the same bulb. Research it.

                          Ballasts too. Apparently the owners have changed and they cleaned up.

                            I got mine from ventura motorsport just cause theyre down the street from me. I'm sure its just the same chinese bulb though. I thought 55w washes the color out?
