I have them in, they work great, but i feel like its not bright enough, or not enough light gets to the road?....my friend has a 2002 accord and i placed my car next to his, he has stock halogen bulbs...and it was as if my hids were just a bit brighter.,..shouldnt they be alot brighter?

And why cant i get this kind of effect from my hid kit?

the light pattern depends on the reflector housing, nothing else. Retro fitting HID's into a housing meant for halogens will be brighter, but wont have a different light pattern. That picture's pattern looks like ones from projectors
