What goes into the first 90 degree discharge tube on the bottom? I have a 1"(ish) threaded female hole.. I assume some kind of adapter for the bypass valve, but I dont know. I'm working with a used kit and it seems to be missing all sorts of stuff. Any help appreciated!

Have you looked at Vortech's instructions (available on their site)?

Scroll down to the "Installation Manuals - Supercharging Systems" section of the following page & select the corresponding kit (PDF doc):

Yea.. I have the instructions.. it says a 1" adapter, the bypass valve doesnt screw on to the pipe, apparently you need the adapter and hose. I think I found a solution though, theres a 90degree plastic fitting that is supposed to go on the inlet pipe, but I have a powerpipe so I dont need it. I may be able to trim the fitting to fit a straight hose.

Any plumbing supply store will have the adapters. They go for a buck or two.
