On the Villager fan (+) wires, there are 2 for the low and high speed. Both are red, and one has a Yellow stripe and one has an Orange stripe. Anyone know which one is the high speed and which is the low?

I don't know but I know how to find out, just connect it up to 12 volts and see.

I have a 2 speed fan controller and it is working just fine. Took a stab at it and since it's working, I'm gonna leave it alone! 
Have a Hayden controller and the wires coming from the controller are blue and orange, so just matched up the orange wire with the red/orange stripe and blue to red/yellow stripe.

For those that have done this mod already, what kind of improvements have you noticed, better throttle response, a little gain in power, better gas mileage, or all of the above ?.

I already have an electric fan, but not one of these installed yet. I noticed slightly better throttle response, small gain in power, not so much MPG though. I'm doing the this swap to cool the engine better. I also have better access to the drive belts, and front of the engine without the clutch fan.

Yea what he said, but I noticed a bit more power under 3500~4000 rpm for sure. I live in So. Fla so it seemed like my clutch fan was always engaged, and I could immediately tell the difference and it is nice. I haven't run a full tank of gas through yet, but I believe the engine is working easier on the highway, I can feel the little extra power and less drag. So I assume my M'sPG will go up.

For those that have done this swap, lets see some pictures of the fan mounted up to the radiator, some pictures of it wired up and a little more information on what all you did to make it work.

This thread has wiring diagrams, and some pictures.
I didn't provide pictures, but here is what I did. I bought a brand new villager fan, and cut it down to fit inside the stock radiator shroud. No need to remove the radiator, but it helps to drain some coolant to remove the top hose. I mounted the electric fan inside the shroud with some bolts and spacers to make it sit closer to the radiator, and more importantly, away from the fan pulley.

Summit Racing, it is a Hayden 3654 dual speed 2-fan controller. I plan on hooking up another 8" fan to my newly installed condenser.
