Get a condenser and a drier. You might be able to put the parts on yourself but both of them need a couple OZ of oil and you must vacuum the system before you charge it otherwise you will have unwanted moisture in the system and atmospheric air which will cause the A/C system to operate at severely reduced efficiency.

You need a dryer too, as was told to you. Anytime the A/C system is opened up, or in your case was "open" for a period of time, the dryer MUST BE REPLACED.
