PH question

Assuming they work, I would guess you need to eat even more to benefit? Like maintenance +800 or something like that?

Depends on your goals. Also there is no "assuming they work", they do work. Do some research, it's science.

With greater amounts of protein added to your diet

Any particular g\lb ratio recommended? For what it's worth I'll be 38yo 6' ~170lbs at ~8ish% bf Seems like my maintenance is\was around 2800 at 188lbs Was originally thinking I'd plan a diet at around 220P, 35% fat, rest carbs at 3200 but assuming I would go over a bit at dinner (first pwo solid food meal) and adjust from there, but then I was thinking if I used a PH i would probably be able to\need to eat more

Sounds like you've got your diet down pretty well for yourself. If it were me and I was going to cycle a PH, I would shoot for 2+ grams/lb body weight for protein. Since protein synthesis is increased, I would rather give my body too much to maximize gains rather than not enough. If you are worried about elevated liver levels due to excess protein, I wouldn't be, your only going to be consuming that large amount of protein for a short amount of time and once you discontinue, levels will go back to baseline.
