Was able to get most things working using various KEXTs placed in Other folder.
Did have a go at trying to get the Intel wireless M.2 card to work and kept getting KP's and could not get a proper error dump to investigate further. Started with the available project available, compiled and installed. Later installed the Broadcom card with most success. BT worked, then did not work. So deeper dive there to come. Once I have this figured out will try to adapt to the Intel card and try to post a beta KEXT for others interested. This will take me about a year so if something else develops sooner, use that. This is for me a hobby and as others pointed out probable will never work.
Was able to get the SD card reader to work simply using the USBInjectAll.kext. Now need to go deeper and do the GIPO layout and report back on a patch for the RBP.
Sound is working with the Voodoo KEXT however I am sure there is a proper Layout ID that will work. I have tried all the ones for ALC298 Realtek without success. Layout 29 without the Voodoo KEXT gives a level on the internal microphone as if detecting sound but does not give audio output. This likely will take DSDT learning to get it working. So more to come here.
Trackpad still not working so using a USB mouse for now. Since I never ran Windows on the Blade before upgrades mentioned in previous posts, did verify the trackpad does work using the Ubuntu "live CD".
Highly recommend backing up your installation with Carbon Copy Cloner and not using Time Machine. TM for me has been highly erratic on Mojave 10.14.2 so will not be using it on the Razer running 10.13.6. CCC makes a nice bootable copy. Also back up your EFI folder as a zip file and copy to the desktop of the clone in case.
