doesn't 100w bulbs put a strain on the electrical system of the car?

Yes. It doubles the current running through the wiring - its not particularly safe to do that.

Plus you can get stopped and fined for it as they are against the law for road use as earlier mentioned.

wouldnt 8000's be better for him then... seeming as he likes the blue tint cause arent 6000's just white ?

6000ks are rather blue, and a projector makes it even more so! 8)

LED style full beams? I presume you mean HID style full beams? Something like Osram Night Breakers should be pretty good for them.
