1. From reading over a few posts it's better to have the afm as close to the tb as possible? If so I'm assuming I have to cut into my gktech piping and fit it there correct? And I would have, but my brother recons i might not need an afm with my haltech ex6, or do I? Don't want to cut the pipe for nothing. 2. Where does the little nipple from the turbo go? Will try get a pic up soon. 3. From my actuator or whatever it is called I have some weird attachment to it but have no idea wth it is, will get a pic up soon. 4. The teet on the rocket cover closest to the tb, what does this connect to, nit sure now that the car is turbo :S Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

no need for the afm with a e6x the hose from the boost controller goes to the comp cover re pic 1 conect that and make sure the arrow on the controller is pointing the right way from memory its ment to point to the actuator . the rear rocket cover teet normally connects to the intake side of the plastic piping just before the turbo thats if u still are running the standard airbox plastic/rubber tubing off the turbo .. the hose teet off the cooler piping goes to the pipe at the back of the plenum u can see uncovered its 10-12mm from memory now as for the rocket cover teets most ppl connect them to oil catch cans hope that helps and u can understand it cheers bt
