The information on this site and within this thread should be all you need to get up and running - so follow it to the letter. Other than this I'm not sure your graphics card is compatible - that tends to be the biggest problem for most people so do some research on that front before even starting.
Porkroll - I was in a similar boat. Just take the same steps maleorderbride did and use his DSDT and the extensions he installed as a starting point. I think this is on page 9 of this thread or thereabouts. Other than that the best advice I can give you is to copy your system drive to another disk as soon as you have a working system so you have something to fall back on in case you break something and can't boot. This has helped me enormously when I've been tweaking.
Once it's all up and running it really is a sweet setup. The 2011 chips kick ass for hyperthreaded tasks (audio production in my case).
