Will the stock fans and radiator fit with the fp3065 in place ? If not, could you only run one fan ?
 
Even if they dont fit, My advice would be to buy 2 Slim Fans and wire them up so that both got on when your thermostat opens. Wire the as pushers and put them infront of the Rad, Not as Efficient but since you have 2 and they flow more than stock, you should have more than enough air flow getting to the Rad. Also try building an air deflector so that air that gets over, under, and on the sides of the FMIC is directed at the Radiator.

Hope This Helps.
 
you might be able to fit one stock fan, but i know on my fp3052, the wastegate gets in the way even on my slimfan (mainly the dump tube), so i could only run 1 slim fan on the otherside, since the stock fan got in the way of the intercooler piping. theres not much space to play with, maybe you could figure out some way to mount the fan on the other side though.
here, you can see how much room you will have to play with

Stock AC fan will work if you position the dump properly but it will be tight (if your running their recirculated O2 housing then it won't fit). With the dump you'll have about .5" clearance. As for the main fan & the comp cover, I'm going to say probably no & if it does fit it will be basically touching. My 3052 has maybe .5" clearance with the comp cover but the 3065 uses a slightly larger cover. I've heard others mention they had to run a slim fan on the passenger side with this setup as well.
 
yea, thats all i could fit, now i think the stock fan can clear the compressor cover, but if you run your intercooler piping toward the passenger side, it wont fit. that was my case, so i could only fit the 1 slimfan on the passenger side.
