I think that the intake should be smaller than the exhaust, I'm not sure. But the more airflow the better, so I would go as big as possible.

you need another fan that just cools the fan imo, i would have a inline fan or i modified a exhaust fan ran the duct thru the light and out the tent and i have another fan that is sucking the old air out

Alright I have one inline fan blowing cool air in and one sucking cool air, with one small fan on the plants and still can not get it below 87. THe light is prob about 3 feet above the plants to try to cool it off and still nothing.

This is how i have it, i have to have the fan coming in from the top. Trying to make it as stealth as possible. One that is hooked up to the light is sucking the air out and the one going to the bottom is blowing fresh in.

Hey dude, I would run ducting from your light out of the box. Put some ducting on the open side of the light, and make a hole in the wall straight across, lead the ducting through. Take your intake fan, turn it so it is sucking the air out. Then, where you have the stationary fan, put a hole in that wall, so the fan is sucking in new air from outside the box.

I have one fan sucking the air of the box and one blowing fresh air in from the top. I cant put any holes in the bottom growing area.

Well after my high wore off i realized that my temp in my cabinet is only maybe 5 degrees hotter then the room. THe air conditioner is broken, STUPID landlords are trying to fix it. Landlords are girlfriend friends so im safe with the babys. But we are moving as soon as we find a house.
I have it down to around 85 with the sun out, 4 out of the 6 looks pretty good and the other two look wilted and about to die. Can I do anything for them?

Your setup should be just fine, however you HAVE to get the air AROUND the grow room lower, get your AC fixed or your plants will never live in those temps.
