Default ECU fuse keeps blowing HELP!!!

like the title states i've got done doing a swap to me EG and everything was fine. until i went to go get my tags. the ecu fuse blow out every time i turn the key to accessory? i've checked most of my wires and haven't found anything. I also have a walbro 255 fuel pump that was acting up before but i'm not sure if that could play a factor. I have friends that put 255's in and blew a fuel pump relay... ? any takers?!

Tried it today and it's still the same. I'm beginning to think it's the ecu itself

Repalce the fuse, use a Digital Multimeter, set it to volts, put one led on ground, then prong one wire at a time at the ecu...should not read more than .5V with key on engine off. Test your fuse box with a test light, with the engine off with led on ground, there should not be any power, if there is you are half way there.

tried it still doesn't work, here's a lists of what i have tried...

Unplugged everything such as ecu, fuel pump, injectors, O2..
except the main relay and it blows.

Ecu is fine, plugged it in a friends car and it worked prefect.
Fuel pump has been changed back to stock and unplugged and it still blows.
unplugged O2
Unplugged Injectors

I unplug the main relay it doesn't blow. I changed it out with a brand new one and it still does the same thing. This is becoming such a big headache.

Everything is factory specs.

Any other ideas??? I could use it.
