Does heavy gauge armature windings give more motor speed or more torque?. I have two 550's and one has heavy windings and one has fine windings. I'm thinking the one with fine windings will be questionable.

to be put simply, more windings means more torque for a given size.

to expand on that... if your windings are about the same size, the one with bigger wires will logically have few windings

The gauge of the windings really only depends on whether the motor is a single, double, or triple turned. A 12x1 turn motor has heavy windings, a 12x2 has two sets of slightly thinner windings, 12x3 has 3 sets of even thinner windings. Single turned motors run hotter than double and are really hard on the comm/brushes, double runs hotter than triple. I know the Titan was originally a singled turned motor, then went to a triple to bring down the failure rate. You may have one of each.

To expand further then all the above what the winds mean to you
9 turn single has less resistance then a 10 turn single but a 9 double will have less resistance then a 9x1 and a greater magnetic pull hence more torque.
