Power steering question

The FD power steering is supposed to get stiffer as you hit a certin speed. This is supposed to be controlled by the single wire that hooks up to the power steering pump from what I've heard.... I'm too lazy right now to go down and do circuit checks on it so I'm just wondering how this system works... I want my Power steering to be there, but on the stiffer setting all the time.. do I need to ground that wire, hook up power to it, disconect it... If you know please share the info..

Thanks...
Chris

lol... I want to keep power steering, I just want it to be kind of in the middle of what it would be with it and with out it... so it's not overly responsive, but I don't have to fight to park the car...
