Garage Project's Pernicious Weed Clone

Hey Guys, Looking for a bit of feedback.
GP's Pernicious Weed is one hell of an IIPA.

I haven't yet brewed this yet, and may not for a while as GP say they are using 100% whole cones and frankly, my current system just cant handle that at the moment... thats a lot of hop matter....

I could always try using type90s.

Anyway, I would love you thoughts and theories, comments and quarries on the recipe I've made.

(side note - is there an easy way to import BeerSmith recipes into this forum? I'm new here.)

    I am going to have a shot at PW myself,  Its definitely  Rakau late, NS early.  the whole cone draft version is truely awesome but I am not sure that they use cones in the bottled version.  its a different beer, way more bitter.

    How about this reworking of the hops then?
