Exhaust vent help... 100cfm enough?

[Pdub721]

Whats up fellas, I have a 3'x2'x1'6'' box and just installed a 100cfm inline exhaust fan.. I feel like it isn't much really, I tried to cover up the air leaks as best I could(there are a lot) and I just couldn't feel the negative pressure. I need the pressure for when I get a carbon filter, so I'm thinking I need to go up in CFM anyway.

Heres a shot

Check out my grow journal too - I feel I'm off to a great first start!

I'm thinking of getting an elbow to connect to the exhaust guard vent I have put in instead of the straight piece to the ducting. Any suggestions will help much appreciated blaze one up for me!

Hi, did you work out the required fan cfm, length x width x hight <----gives you one room change per minute. You will lose some cfm with filter...leaks....and duct, looking at your picture I hope you don't leave the duct bent over in that u shape, you will lose cfm there.
