Default brakes = no power?

My car used to be turbo'd, I was running 450's with a safc. I didnt like the way it was running, so I took off the turbo, put back in the stock injectors, took off the safc. A little before i took out all the stuff, everytime I would hit the brakes, the dash/radio would lose power. the temp/gas guages dim, the tach and speedo go down to zero, the radio turns off...its been driving me nuts latley. anyone have any idea at what it could be? thanks

So did the car stall at that point or stutter to run?
and did the lights go completely out?
do you have abs?

ok, I have an update on this..whenever i turn on the headlights, the car stutters and shuts off..when i press the brakes, the dashlights turn off completely. also the tach nor speedo works. I check the battery and alternator, they're both good. check the stop light switch, wasnt that either, any help here?
