Yeah i think, of course this is in Canadian Dollars, it cost me about 50 bucks so far jsut for the tubing. I went to Canadian Tire. You can find ABS Piping at any hardware store. the filter will probably be the most expensive part. Costs I ahve found in my research are going to be about 50 bucks to 150 CAD

Well, the ABS is pretty heat resistant. It has a foam core so it insulates pretty well already. Also, there isn't much room between it and the A/C lines as it is.
