Busa,

As you seems very keen of installing 90/100 tubes, i would suggest you skip the 90/100 league and look out for a better 55/60 wattage bulb which i presume is the default wattage of the fogs/headlights which you are looking at for replacement.

As a matter of fact the relay are not going to add any wattage in your basic wiring but will only protect you wiring from the danger of getting heated up. However, for using any 90/100 you will have to get your relay and holders altered so as they not get melted by the heat produced by the tubes which further leads in cutting and modification of OEM wiring. Apart from getting melted there is another sure-shot danger of getting you reflectors faded on a span of time after using the 90/100. I may be sounding anti-90/100 at this moment, but yes this is the plain truth installing behind 90/100 league tubes.

You may bet on 55/60 +50%/+80% range from philips and osram. Otherwise, if you are serious about lighting try Xenon/HID. They are costlier but worthier.

Cheers
