No missunderstanding, you are dead on. I like to tell folks that overkill is hard to do on the intake unless it becomes a stealth or structural issue.

Just got some Darkroom Louvers and there's so little airflow they are WORTHLESS!!

Some guy here was swearing by 4X intakes. I have 2X. My fan still ramps up considerably when I close the door and breathes a sigh of relief when opened.Azeotrope said:

I saw some floor register vents at HD today and they should work for a nice big intake without blocking as much air as a darkroom louver. Plus, they are cheap $4 each here:

az--> Thanks for that nmb link. I'm no engineer, so correct me if I'm reading that page wrong but stacking 2 computer fans on top of each other would pull more air out of a cab than having them side by side or spread 20" apart?
This is my friends current set up that I'm helping him with and he found out that he definitely needs more light traps/intakes to cool his cab.
bottom light trap/intake
top light trap/intake (both 1.5"diameter)
so another question for you az: would it help to put an intake fan on the opposite wall of the exhaust fan to push more air over the lights?
