Headlight question for those with projectors

Does the projectors put out as much as the factory ones? You know how bright, beam width, and all that. Also witch projectors would you recommend. Kinda like to get a set of carbon fiber ones or just straight black.

I have the TYC projectors.... I don't think they put out as much light as the stock ones do - the high beams are alright, but I'd recomend getting an aftermarket H1 bulb (like the xenon bulb) if you go with them for the low beams.

i agree with mikalem..the low beams blow but the highs are decent. also gotta make sure the beams are straight cuz sometimes right outta the box the beam patterns are f'ed up without adjustment.
