Just use adapters, that's what I use for my setup. Here's mine using a 4" fan to cool a hood with a 400w bulb in it. Temp right now is 76 degrees.

That's normal, it's not supposed to feel like a vacuum.

I do 200CFM from Phresh filter thru an air-cooled hood and out and there's plenty of flow. If I close the intake the tent collapses instantly, a sure sign of the necessary negative pressure to keep the air flowing in the proper direction recycling the tent air several times a minute.
