Has anybody tried the Sierra Nevada Torpedo recipe listed on that (very interesting) worksheet?

I'm not on Facebook and I had some questions about it.

It seems to be using hop oils supplemented by dry hopping.  Does anybody know what the hopping cadence should be?  I've made Torpedo "old-school" (boiling grains/hops to make wort) and there are progressive hop doses at different points in primary fermentation.

Also, could/should we replace the H2 oil with dry hops?

Torpedo Extra IPA is one of my favorite beers but prohibitively expensive here in Australia.  It would be great if I could make something like it in my 'droid!

I haven’t made this myself however not in favour in the hop oils so I’d certainly change the H2 to 25g Centennial pellets with the suggested other dry hops, giving a total 70g. 
If you proceed, your thoughts as to the result would be appreciated. (Note- the E elements apparently contain hops as does the liquid extract cans.)
