Itll help a bit, but you probably will still need to get an AC>

what type of fan is it?

PS you're actually exhausting the air to outside the tent, right?

do you have a passive intake?  maybe if you went to home depot and got a 4 inch duct booster to bring air into the tent that might help out a lot and it's only like 30$ you won't have to go spend all that money on a 6" in-line.  Just something you could try seeing how you can easily return those things to the hardware store if it didn't solve the problem.
