Default is my ecu fried!!!

ok i have a b16 block with a b18 head with edelbrock manifold and aem fuel rail, aem fpr and full drag 3 turbo kit. im also using the stock gsr ecu right now. my question is "how come i blowing ecu fuses when i let off the gas"? for instance i could back up and then get ready to go forward and then my car will just die and you cant start the car anymore. and it turns out that the 15amp ecu fuse keeps blowing... how is this? do i need a new one? can this have anything to do with another fuse under the dash possibly? thanks

Start first by checking everything that has been added on. Check with the latest things(boost controller, turbo timer etc.) and make sure nothings shorting from thier.
