I was able to improve our air conditioning by sealing the corners and exhaust venting to the ceiling air vents with metal foil tape. I also repositioned and retaped the fiberglass board that separated the incoming and outgoing air from mixing. Below is a before and after of the air box.
Next, I taped the ceiling air vents to the inside of the duct work. I found up to a quarter of an inch gap between where the vent sleeve went into the duct work. I made a tool from a paint can opener to make it easier to remove the vent covers. Below are the pictures.
This upgrade took a little time but well worth it.
