Unzip In FB, go to Preferences/Flash Builder/Installed Flex SDKs Hit Add...
I would not make this folder the default SDK. For some existing FlexJS project, go to Project/Properties/Flex Compiler and choose this new SDK. Note that Project/Clean does not clean up the "bin" folder so you may want to manually delete it. In this zip, I have not fixed up the launch scripts. So, if you don't already have a FlexJS project, you might want to first install FlexJS 0.8.0 or a nightly and set up the launch scripts as described here [1]. Otherwise you have to manually set up your FlexJS project.
