Thanks for the compliments, guys.. As for the "accent"... I was just being stupid on video. It was a inside joke of sorts, aimed at a buddy of mine who lives out in the sticks... I make fun of his hick accent from time to time. 
I'm from South Louisiana, but, being in business, I force myself to speak properly, when I need to be serious.
Anyway.. The setup is pretty straight forward. T61/P-trim turbocharger (T4 based), 550cc injectors, Malory fuel pump, Walbro in-tank pump, and a host of piggyback systems... We're running a base pressure of about 30psi, to compensate for the larger injectors while out of boost. When the engine gets into boost, the FMU brings the fuel pressure back up, and we get our flow capacity back. Not the best sollution, but, the best that we can work with for now. We're using a MSD DIS-4 to control timing advance... after coverting to a "wasted spark" setup. At 8psi, we should make 380-400whp with the T61 compressor..
I am trying to work with HP Tuners or EFIlive for software to tune this beast.. hopefully, one of the two will step up and deliver.

Keep us posted!
I believe EFILive is about to start beta testing on that engine combo. Would like to see some more pics if possible.
