What Watts for uprated bulbs?

I am wanting to fit higher rated bulbs for main beam. I know they will run hotter and might not last as long but what will the wiring take? I have a '91 Jap TT

    I understand the wires are not a problem its the bulb holder that tends to melt.

    I fitted 100W bulbs and they were blowing every couple of weeks or so. Then the wiring started to melt...

    I stuck with modified 30% brighter H1's - they're acceptable. Bear in mind that many of the 100w bulbs chuck out less than a genuine 100w and if the reflector is shite and points the light in the wrong direction it doesn't really matter what type of bulb you have.

    I just want someone to tell me it's OK to fit a 1KW stadium lighting system so I can drive flat out all the time and blind small fry that get in my way.

    For info, SE-Nissan are developing a twin headlight conversion. In early design stages but I should think it could end up being a popular conversion ...
