It's XENTEC... and yes light output will suck with 12,000K. If you can post a picture of the ballast. Some of the Xentec ballasts are just plain junk.

I hope you got a 55w kit, you're not going to see anything with 35w.

I've had/been in car with all kinds of kits, all color temps, 35/55 watts... and when it's raining, you still can't see the lines in the road.
