Wiring Diagram Help

Hello folks,
Hoping to get some help with a wiring diagram. I recently purchased an EBMM 25th Anniversary (think Reflex). I think it's an awesome guitar with lots of great sounds to choose from! The trouble is, I don't find all of them that useful and getting from one of my preferred sounds to the next is a little cumbersome. This wiring diagram looked like a good place to start:

Some changes/additions I was hoping to make:
1. Swap function of positions 2 and 4
2. Phase switch for positions 2, 3 and 4
3. Push/pull on both volumes for individual control of series/parallel in positions 1, 3 and 5
It seems like 1 and 2 should be relatively easy. But I can't wrap my head around 3. Is it even possible? I have to admit that I'm not well-versed with the 5-way Super Switch at all. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
 
  1. Leave the all the connections on the lugs with the red wires alone, and swap the 2/4 jumper connections only on the set of lugs managing the black+white wires.
  2. Pick one of the pickups (bridge or neck, doesn't matter) and put the green and red wires onto a phase flip switch before connecting the output of that to the blade and the back of the pot.
  3. If it were me, I would forgo the parallel coil option. Your blade switch won't work if you put the pickup coils in parallel. You'd have to lift the black+white wires off the blade switch and run them to the push-pulls and then back to the blade and when in parallel your blade switch would probably cancel the parallel coils and you'd end up with either split coils again or no sound at all. Maybe someone here can come up with a tricky way to make it happen, but if you are just looking to make minimal changes to get what you want, I'd leave that part out.
