55w or 50w Hid ballast

Anyone running higher wattage ballast in stock headlight?
I am currently running LED bulbs and it is little better compared to stock ballast and Osram CBI, but i want little more performance.
Would like to upgrade to 50w Morimoto, but i am afraid will damage reflectors bowls...
So, anynody running 50w or 55w setup?

I have those same exact leds for my fog lights. I’m assuming that you changed the projector in the Headlights to H8/H11 so you can use that bulb style as the the low beam?

no, Oem D2S swivel projector.... NOVSIGHT have quite few different kind bulbs. Many bulbs dont perform to good in HID projector, but these surprisingly doing good.
Osram chips performing better than Philips ZES and much better than CREE xhp family.
