Since you blew two engines in such a short time, you need to lean how to treat a rotory engine. You can even blow a well tuned engine if you do not treat it well or understand it's weak points.

(1) Never boost high unless the engine is fully warmed up.
(2) If the warmed engine has sat for a while an heat soaked, let the IC cool down before getting on high boost. If you have the PFC, use the commander to monitor intake air temp and engine cooling temp. Monitor these when out street racing or what ever you are doing when on full boost.
(3) Every time you fill up the gas tank, observed the knock levels when getting on boost the first few times. You never know when you might get bad gas.
(4) A fuel pressure gauge is helpfull as is a WB.
(5) And maintain the engine fluids religiously.
