To route your client-requests via fiddler, alter your options-object like this (ex.: just before you create the http.request):

options.path = 'http://' + options.host + ':' + options.port + options.path;
options.headers.host = options.host;
options.host = '127.0.0.1';
options.port = 8888;

myReq = http.request(options, function (result) {
    ...
});
