The drier is integrated into the condenser, which is honestly one of my favorite features of the kit. It was much harder to make the mounting brackets but the cleanliness of an integrated drier was worth it for sure. The high pressure line runs out of the condenser and 180s to run underneath it. it then pairs with the other low press hose and they route together along the pass side frame rail. I did it this way rather than behind the engine because I wanted it to be as clean and undetectable as it could be, meanwhile still allowing for as many turbo kit options as possible (given the compressor space is there)

Regarding your interior, there are a few options out there if you are looking to run an aftermarket evaporator/heater core unit. Vintage Air out of Arizona has some really cool stuff, and although it's pricey, it allows you to save a ton of space under the dash. I am running one in my turbo truck build and with the different options for hose routing, you won't be able to see any lines in my engine bay, aside from the compressor where they need to hook up. Of course if you were to run one of these setups, the hoses included in my kit wouldnt need to have the OEM fitting adapters.

Awesome, thanks for the explanation. I am using the dual 12" flex - a -lites as pushers. I could do that vintage air kit and it would be kick ass. My dash is gutted and I'm running a switch panel. I can run that unit in place of my glove box.
