I finally have QE\CI on my internal display! I'm using the MacBook Pro 9,1 SMBIOS, LegacyAGPM.kext, 1920x1080x64@85, and DSDT injection for 01660004. It should also be noted that I have removed AppleIntelSNBFramebuffer.kext as it is not needed with the Intel HD 4000 (probably could stop the kext from loading with DSDT later). Here's the DSDT patch for injecting the ig-platform-id:
Using DSDT Editor, you'll have to apply the above patch as well as the DTGP patch from the patches directory. Also, you should edit the 0x04 (not the Buffer) to match your ig-platform-id. I can bundle the patches in a zip file if anyone needs it.
I don't know if any of my external ports work for video, but I'm really happy that I finally have the internal display working with QE\CI. Thanks everyone for your help! I'll post back my findings on external displays over HDMI or VGA.
EDIT:It appears as though external screens over HDMI and VGA don't work with this ig-platform-id, but I'm not too worried about it currently. It would be great to have use of HDMI, but it's not a priority.

Nice to read that!
I'll be waiting for your update on external displays to know if it is worth making all that dsdt + kexts stuff you had to do.
