HELP!! Considering SUING Apex'i!!

Ok now that i have your attention i will tell you what happened. My car was tuned on monday. It ran amazing. We had some problems but that was all fixed (IC pipes blowing off, wastegate bolts backing out). So here is my really big problem. I spent over $600 getting the car tuned and it is all GONE. Here is why. I was driving the car today and it was hauling ass. It felt amazing so i was beating on it a tad. Nothing nuts though. I get to my friends house and let it idle for at least 3 min before shutting it off. I did this because i dont have a turbo timer because they kill motors. I get back in my car and go to start it. Starts up and dies. I just think hell its a turbo car and start it agian. It fires up but idles like hell. I dont think much of it. So i start driving it home and it is bucking, backfire, spitting and generally not really working. I just think it is an IC pipe so i get out and go to fix it. It wasnt an IC pipe. I then proceed to check the wastegate and any other possible problem. Nothing seems to be wrong. At this point i thought i blew the motor. So i go to start it up. Starts fine but still having the problems. I check my safc. All of the corrections, all my info is GONE. All that money pissed away because it malfuntioned. There is NO faulty wiring. I did the wiring, and 3 other people checked it out including the dyno tuner, so its good. Somehow the computer malfuntioned and erased everything! I am trying to get Apex'i to pay for a retune and replace the safc but i am thinking they will fight me the entire time. The Safc is under warentee so that is a plus. I talked to the dyno tuner and he agrees with me it was a programing error. I think this is gonna turn into a long legal battle . What do you guys all think?
