I bought direct from the website and activate the trial initially, and there was no tts, then used a cooked rom, no tts, and now back to official 1.66 rom. I only noticed the tts started to work on the official rom (with formatted SD card) using the link above so I'm not sure if it will work on the dutty rom, can't do any harm trying as I went from the dutty rom to official and all is fine now.
Do you mean the cabs for general apps or copilot? For general apps it doesn't matter, just make a folder called apps. If you install the dutty rom, make a folder in the root called autoinstall and it will auto install your cabs when you do a hard reset. For copilot, extract the folder from the zip (folder is named copilot) and copy that whole folder to the root of the card, so it would be E:\copilot\all files
