How big is your tent. Im running an 8 inch dialled down a bit as extraction, 6 inch intake full tilt, 1.5 x 1.5 tent. My average temps are quite high though compared to the boys in UK and Canada . Not sure of your climate there. Im guessing your running 6 inch extraction currently. If you are in a warm climate you may want to consider buying the 8 and using your 6 as intake. there is considerable noise difference between my 6 and 8 though.

I have a 6 inch for extraction running around 440 cfm, in a 0.6x1.2x1.5 tent. Highest temps so far are upwards of 30 c with the led in there
It's really hot here right now, I live in Florida

I was more thinking your average sesonal temps. eg, a cold night for me here is 9c. So for me makes sense to have maximum intake and extraction. Consider what you might need in your warmer months so you dont find you want more when you get there. If that makes sense, ya can always turn fans down , but cant turn em up.

I understand, we're in the warmest right now unfortunately. Lol
I think that added intake should help though

I bet youve had a crack at gator wrestling mate lol. Just looked up your climate stats, unfortunately its all in Fahrenheit, i cant be arsed with that lol. Our average summer temps here are low 30c. Last yer we had over 80 straight days where temps never fell below 30 day or night. And filthy humidity.
