However, I had to cut the tape to prevent overheating, so I recommend looking into two exhaust fans if you're going in this direction. Also, I believe you can get computer fans that have more than 73cfm as mentioned in this thread.
I do have extra fans. I have 4 that are 80cfm. I was thinking two wrapped in the carbon filter if I go that route. 1 intake and 1 blowing in the cab. I think that will eliminate the heat issues, plus im using cfls and from what Ive read they dont get real hot.

If it works that would be the simplest scrubber yet.
