The highest light output will be 4300k but those aren't really blue, they're the hyperwhite look. The 6000k's seem to be the perfect combo of blue and light output. The higher the temperature of the bulb you go, the less light output, e.g. the 12000k purple lights may look cool but they don't put out nearly as much light as the 4300k bulbs, which is what you're paying for with HID's - light output.

look into nokya bulbs. theyre probably the closest you will come without getting actual xenons
