Again, I am 99% sure that the ballast determines the output, but maybe it's like a lightbulb in a lamp that could use a small range of bulbs.
Thanks guys.

yea it would work
I THINK its the bulb b/c you can replace just the hid bulb and choose what color you want it to be and not change the ballast. Stealthauto has a thread showing this just search. Also i think our all HID's come with 4300k b/c it emits the most lumens, but maybe the newer cars have 6000k.
