I suggest you do the following.

*Install cloudflare and disable it's rocketloader feature. It can help serve content as a cdn as well as help block attackers/bad bots.

Cloudfare is a bad idea on a large heavy traffic site like his.

*Install the htaccess found in my guide to help with caching, gzip & more.

He dont need to, thats already being done by nginx if its setup correctly

*Try out vb4 supercharged.

That hack hasnt been updated in over a year & dont work correctly on later versions of vb.

*Optimize your images

*Where possible, add css sprites.

And last but not least, make a post here to help fine tune your server hardware/software.

If you need help with any of the above, simply look in my signature for the link to the popular guide.

Normally when Nginx is installed apache is disabled.

Nhawk, nginx is in proxy mode, then passes the php process off to apache, nginx is caching images & gzipping content to name a few, as well as handling a wide range of attacks that apache could never handle that are built into nginx by default.
