hi guys. few more information about this build. i have the same config (with gtx 780 ti):
with 10.9.2 (without modified kernel)you can have a full vanilla installation. in my case, bios 4608 (latest), i have too boot with this flags to installa 10.9.2:
-v npci=2000 cpus=1
the installer goes very slowly. even the first boot is very slow because you are using only 1 cpu.
then, when you install multi beast with the correct options, everything work!
i have a 99% working system.
yeah, 99% because for now it is not possible to have a full working appleintelcpupoermangement , even with dsdt.

Has there been an update to this now that its March 2014? Do we still need to modify the kernel for install? Can anyone please provide a step by step update without the kernel? Any help would be much appreciated.
