Here is the install page from when I did the C&R in my WRX. It's a great radiator and I'm planning on putting it in the STi soon:

I thought it was pretty clear:

This is because the stock fans are two speed. To get the fans to work you will have to wire up two of the wires and leave one taped off. I left the stock three prong connector in place since the wires on the fan side of this are the same color as the wires for the C&R. Just run black to black and blue to blue.

Let me know what else you are looking for.
