Default Electrical Problem

I just installed a new swaybar on my car and being as such i went out to give it a test. I took a corner at about 40 and my car just went off then came back on again. Once i let off the gas the car just died. I had to wait about 2 min before the car would even attempt to start again. Its scary making a high speed turn with no power steering. My battery is in the spare tire well but i think it is tied down well. What else could be the problem?

Two things I can think of - gas tank almost empty and it all sloshed to one side on the turn, or you have a bad ground or short somewhere. Another guy had a problem where his car would die when turning one particular direction - his turned out to be a bad ground I believe.

This is the thread I posted in, but it seems to me that someone had the same or a similar problem and posted up the solution (bad ground - can't remember which one). Can't remember for sure the details on it - sorry.
