600w in a DR80

I'm wondering if a 600w would work in a DR80 grow tent. The last grow I did was with a 250w + CFL's and I was not satisfied.

A list of the things I have right now include:
-DR80
-600w ballast / reflector / MH and HPS bulbs
-250w ballast / reflector / HPS bulb
-6" Vortex
-4" Vortex
-6" Carbon Filter
-4" Carbon Filter
-a couple of 4"-6" reducers for ducting
-4" and 6" ducting


I'm thinking if I put the 4" as an intake (on the outside of the tent), have the carbon filter and 6" vortex hung up at the top of the tent, and have an oscillating fan I might be OK.

What are your opinions? Is a 600w not do-able?

Thanks!

The DR80 is 2x2 correct, that is quite small for a 600. IF the light is separately air cooled with the 6" vortex, and the 4" vortex with the 6" carbon filter is used to exhaust the tent it could possibly be do-able. If you don't have an air cooled hood I just set it up in the tent and use a thermometer to see how hot it gets in there and your question will be answered.

the DR80 is 2.7 x 2.7 x 4.5 I believe. I'm not positive on the height. Thanks for the advice.

Would it be possible to put the carbon filter on the inside, and then have the out-take fan on the outside of the tent, or would that be less efficient?

That is the most efficient way to do it I'm pretty sure.
