Some questions for my budget turbo build??

[proracedriver616]

So i already have a 12b off a conquest, 325 ebay manifold, an ebay fmic, and a rrfpr...i have a couple questions i wanna get cleared up before i start on my project.  First off...the afm, where to put it?  I have seen pics on here of it in the upper ic pipe basically in the factory location but i dont understand how it can function under boost.  Im not gonna run ms or anything like that for a while so keeping the stock afm is a must,  what do i need to do to run it in the ic track, or should i relocate it to the other side of the engine bay before the turbo?  Also to those of you that have upgraded to bigger injectors did you tighten the flapper inside the afm to keep afr's close to stock at idle and off boost?  Also i have not been able to find a definitive answer on any of the posts ive read about what to do with the icv, i have read that it doesnt work out to well when routed the factory way...so what do i do about routing that too?  thanks

The afm should actually go in front of the turbo but most people don't feel like lengthening the harness to move it and since you're just upping the fuel pressure it doesn't matter if the afm can read pressurized air or not.
