CONGRATS on the progress!!!
So, if what you're doing is working, I'd not change it. However sets of 40 and 60 reps are not what I'd typically suggest for Pump sets - the recommended rep range tops out at 30. Again, if it ain't broke and you're willing to endure it.
I guess you've got a an apple watch or a fit bit or something to guage your energy expenditure?... Regardless, it sounds like you've got the right idea as far as titrating your calories relative to how you train on those days. Tailoring your diet and training to YOU is definitely the way to go.
KEEP KICKING ASS!!!

Thanks Doc,
Ill take note your suggestions, is this purely based on a CNS perspective ? What's the reasoning behind this (keeping <30)?
Yes I use a polar HR tracker and I roughly burn 200 less on day 2 and 4 so tailoring to suit.. It's also fun to see how hard I can get that HR.. Split squats both in the smith machine and DB's (holding in both hands) sees my HR hit 175+ which is torture (in a good way).
