did you check all the fuses with a test light? or did you just looked an looked at them? the fuse is blown, the wires are good. get a test light and check the fuses. it will be obvious which one is bad.

Did you look under the hood too? There is a backup radio fuse under the hood, and that one may be blown as well. Chances are there is a blown fuse, check, double check, and triple check the fuses.
EDIT - Does anything else not work now? IE radio, horn, lights, etc?

You need to turn the boost down to yield only about 372 whp. After you have done this, you can safely replace the fuse that runs your dome light. If you leave your car at the HP level it's at right now, you risk catching your car on fire when you replace the fuse.
Be VERY careful when you turn the boost back up for full power. I'd get an infrared temperature gun and check every piece of wire in the car. Due to the high HP levels, you are at high risk of overheating the wiring in the car. I recommend pulling the carpet, dashboard, and headliner so you can access all parts of the wiring harness. You can't be too safe when it comes to this.
After you have reduced your HP level and removed the whole interior, replace fuse 43 under the hood.
