I just had a quick google and that tent is a nice size. Congrats on your purchase. Cant wait to see it setup and in good use.
My tent probably wont be in use for another 2-3 weeks. Still gotta get a good fan and filter. To many projects at 1 time and not enough $$$. sux big time.

This is the fan im thinking of going for:

Can anyone please advise me if this will be enough for my setup.
thanks in advance.

I recommend the suncourt fans... sealed bearings great for high humidity environments and 5 year warranty :) they also have great pressure and run quietly!
This link is just the first one i found on google

High All! I'am running a Light House Hydro 6.5x6.5x6.5 with 2 600 watters and 1 400watter, 460 CFM in line fan exhausting through all 3 lights then outside the building. Fresh air is passive at the bottom of the tent. exhuast is run from thermisate. so only runs when tent temps hit 85 I run a CO2 setup so I want the temps high. I only grow 6 plants at atime so I have alot of room to do all my maintance to the plants without tripping over everything. ballists, CO2, Timers, and all electical connections are made out side the tent. If I can figure out how to do so I will try to get a couple of pictures up.

I would go with an 8 inch, then use a speed control to dial it in for the size of your tent.

8" is away overkill imo. All you need is a 200cfm 4" fan. I would recommend a 400cfm fan on a dimmer at 50% to lower noise but an 8" is crazy overkill - even dimmed to 25% and you're blowing way more air than necessary. I have a 4'x4'x6.5' tent with 1000w light and run a 6" 400cfm fan at 30%...
