The first time you plug the apexi in it needs to self learn you idle speed. Are you running a stock setup ?

Just take it easy, the PFC map is richer but the setup you have is quite heavy for the original ECU. Was it an aftermarket stock ECU before (like knightsport) ?

Make sure you get it tuned soon and don\'t be too mad with the loud pedal.
