You better concentrate on air flow in that low height space. A 600 watt HID will cover. But heat is going to be huge. Better stick with CFL, best T5 not spirals.

Don't waste your money on t8's,we were just speaking about these light sources @ Texas Growers Unite.Make a taller room you'll b glad you did!You got the right idea with cfl's but they do put out HEAT.It seems t5's are the way to go.Check this out https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/358190-led-without-leds-my-first.html.

I have to agree with the general consensus here that the the height is way too low unless you are gonna stick to miniature plants or autobud strains. I would say a minimum height for an enclosure should be 150cm.
With regards to lighting in your case, CFL is the way to go to keep extreme heat at bay, HID lamps create a shyte load of heat and LED's in my eyes are still experimental. 105w CFL will work great for two plants.
The big boy on the left is what you are looking for.

This could work actually if you know how to keep a plant under 1 ft (LST 12/12 from seed),smaller pots have the right lighting (MH) but your lights would have to be stationary like mines(can move horizontal though),I only use 3ft of of the 9ft of height i have.

Grow it sideways. Super Silver Haze, no auto. 65" best I can measure. A solid bud almost - a bonus to growing laterally. Check it.

1st photo: The box i want to use to put my setup inside, i want to cover it and put my lights.. It's (100cm length, 40cm width, 80cm height)
2nd photo: The place i want to put my grow box after i clean it, its the same height (80cm) so i can use the small window to put my fans out to the ventilation shaft..
The temperature its (27.6 celsius) now without lighting and fans.
How can I make a good air circulation for my grow box?
How many (watts & Lumens) for lighting if i want to use CFL's?
And what's the best material to cover my box?
