2004 Dodge Sprinter

Q: i have a 99 dak sport 4x4 5.2 auto with the oem fog lights. i found the piaa 4 hid fog lights that would fit in the stock hole in the bumper and still look oem. looked up in the shop manual the fogs run on a single 20a circuit. 20a at 12v is 240watts right so running the two 35 watt hids would not be a problem. but how do i wire the fogs so they stay on when i flip on the high-beams i am assuming the fog relay is tied into the lowbeam circuit so when the low beams are cut off then the high beams come on the fogs turn off too. would i be able to move the relay trigger wire for the fogs over the running lights instead the relay should be pretty low current. where might i do this in the wiring thanks in advance for any help! .

i have an 04 3500 ho 555 lb ls 4.10. this truck has a full banks kit 4 exhaust six gun loader and high ram. the factory limits the common rail to 17500 psi. the banks six gun with loader in position 6 will push the common rail till 27000 psi which is the maximum service limit but not more. the loader requires a thermal egt probe pre turbo and if it doesnt find one it does nothing. if the egt exceeds 1300 f it automatically drops the rail pressure back plus all the safety features within the normal computer are continually observed like gearbox slippage. most of the other brands do not do this and like the other responder states creates some risk. the banks kit is more expensive but certainly safer. it adds economy as well about 2mpg with normal driving. however you should be also completely guaged out as well. like supply fuel pump pressure boost egt trans. oil temp. if you do this my advice is to do it correctly and it is well worth it. if you do the install yourself it will cost about $2300 shopping around. steve what do you guys think of the diesel hop-up kits any down sides what do you know of pricing kv .
