What are the temps and RH in there when the lights are on? If it's autoflower why don't you grow them outside the box?

the temp is 35-40 degree Celsius (95-104 degree Fahrenheit) i dont know what the humidity level is ... man id love to grow them outside the box but i need to keep a low profile :P

I honestly think with temps like your reporting, i would go with CFL's in that closed space. Your light is too powerful for your grow cabinet.
