Downgrade to Snow Leopard

That won't work.

You'd need the disks from an early 2011 MBP, with 10.6.7 or later. The Apple disk is 10.6.3 which will refuse to install on your machine I can guarantee it.

It will not refuse if you use Target disk mode. Find a Mac (say a C2D) that supports 10.6.3 and install it onto the late 2011 drive, then patch to 10.6.8. It'll then boot normally as all the required drivers are available.
