It really depends on the intensity of your current leds. Without a PAR meter it might be difficult to compare, but you can probably make a reasonable visual judgement of the intensity before and after... If possible even take a picture from the same place before and after (ideally with a camera you can set manually for white balance) and then compare on a computer.

It won't hurt, however, to start them dimmer than your current settings and have it ramp up automatically over a week or so. (using a coral acclimatization mode)
