Getting into DI applications with their extremely high fuel pressures requires very precise calibrations, NOT "good enough" piggyback apps...and for those to be accomplished requires direct OEM/Tier "support".
Stay tuned...

The reasons most shops don't mess with the V6 stuff is because there is no solid businesscase for it.
The cost/benefit of getting 500 horsepower or anything higher, there is no argument that can truly be made.
The only argument that could be made is "Make 500 horses with 30mpg", which would be nice, but is there truly a line of people checkbooks in hand ready to sign up for that? Nope.
This isn't meant to discourage the V6 guys, but any company has to look at "does this make sense" and it really does not. Plus drivetrain upgrades, R&D, etc etc. Just snowballs.
