Hello All,
I am in the process of building lines and mounting the drier.
I have rebuilt the MVAC box with new evaporator and blend doors. I will add new expansion valve when ready. The 98 AHU compressor lines don't exactly fit my build. I have an Eco Jetta airbox and my fuel filter that get in the way. Plus my hard line from Airbox/MAF to the turbo runs right in front of the Exp valve. I think they will fit the expansion valve but I will need to locate the drier somewhere that will change the line lengths. The biggest line change will be the drier line to condenser. I have been thinking about finding the smallest drier to help placement. Any ideas?
Also the low pressure (large O.D.) line from the Exp valve to compressor has this aluminum cylinder as a junction point. Any ideas if that is critical or not. I could cut/weld a custom line there and help routing issues.
I wanted to use as much as the AHU Jetta parts to help with replacement parts but I don't think I can fit in there.
Any ideas would be appreciated! Then I get to try and figure capacity and fill volumes!!!
Thanks
John
