System: ASUS G53JW, i7 740QM, 8GB RAM, GTX460M
-- OS X 10.6.6, installed using Nawcom ModCD (most recent as of 2/15/2011)
-- mach_kernel, tonymacx86 Nvidia drivers
-- Booting via chain0 (pulled from Chameleon RC5r678_Trunk668), using Win7 bootloader with boot.ini (
[boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(1) - OSx86 boot.ini chain0)
-- lspci:

Kernel flags (mach_kernel) -

VoodooHDA.kext.2.7.2-10.6 - modify Info.plist with the following:
<key>iGain</key>
<string>0</string>
<key>iMix</key>
<string>80</string>
<key>Mic</key>

As far as wifi, I was able to get something basic going. I can connect to unsecured networks, but no WPA.
/System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros21.kext/Contents - add the following:
<string>pci168c,2b</string>
<string>pci168c,002b</string>
(I later ordered a AR5B93 from Ebay for $6 and it works perfectly.)
The laptop has a UVC Webcam (04F2:B1BB), but had no luck getting it working:

Between kext installs/edit, I ended up having to use the following utility:
Kext Utility x64 for SnowLeopard (update) - Downloads - Kexts.com
Also, when something went wrong, I would boot into single user mode:
-v cpus=8 busratio=13 arch=i386
And on every boot (while making changes) would use `-f` to force the caches to refresh.
