Hi Erdin,
On the halfbridge that I built we ran the apexi power fc successfully.
Maybe the engine needs dowelling?It could be that the power is causing the housings to move.
Kind regards
Carl

Erdin, Check the timing with a light and verify that what your getting with the timing light matches your timing on your map at idle. If its advanced you may have crossed the wires to the crank angle sensor and even though the map says your running correct timing a light will show much more advanced timing. This cost me 3 motors this year until the timing was verified with a light. Apex seals would break at the corner. No other signs and no detonation. Apex seals would break on the corners only! This is with a single turbo and 15-18 psi on pump gas. Motors kept blowing even though Air/Fuel was safe.
