Will a 4inch inline fan with filter work in A 32X32X60 tent with a 400watt hps? Will it help with heat and odor for 2 plants?
will this fan and filter work in my grow?

It should work out well. Had one before (2.5' x 2'5 x 5') grow room, fitted with a 400 watt Metal Halide bulb and a 6" inline duct fan, no problems here,

Yes i believe so. Just make sure you open up one of your vents at the top to let air pass smoothly, it worked for me.

A 4" fan should work fine. Remember, it's about the CFM, or how many cubic feet it moves per minute, more then the diameter of the fan/ducting. The bigger the diameter, the more air it can move efficently, however, a 240cfm 4" fan will move the same amount of air as a 240cfm 6" fan.
Don't forget to buy a fan speed controller! This is a must, otherwise you won't have any control over you environment. Often the fan speed needs to be adjusted to keep your temps/humidity under control. My fan's start off barely moving any air when my plants are in early veg so I can keep my humidity up around 60%. When I am in flower my fans are running much higher as I try to get the humidity down to around 30-40%.
Hope this helps!
