Not criticizing, but if it was me, knowing that hot air rises, and anticipating air flow, I would have put the exhaust in the top left.

Bakatare666 gave you good info. So I'd have 2 openings. The bottom I'd duct tape some screen (or pantyhose) and remove the intake fan. Put both fans inline on your exhaust. Fans are far more effect pulling then pushing. You only need passive intake. If you need more intake cut a larger intake hole but put both fans inline on the top exhaust hole.

Everything looks good, too bad you are using CFLs so it doesnt matter how good it looks, going to be below average product.

Bakatare is right here. iv'e made the mistake a couple times myself.

i just turned my intake/exhaust fans around, and was fine.

take your door off and turn it upside down.

then it'l b on the top left :blsmoke:
