I assume "we" know everything we did during the install ?
It's either going to be where you took the power from for your system, or where you chose to ground your system that is causing the problem... well assuming you didn't break something else during the install.

I agree it has to be in the wiring.

Either fuese or possibly some sort of a bad ground that's causing a short.. I'd find it quickly as a short like that could fry an ECU possibly.

Did you mess with the small ground wire right up on the radiator support? If not tightened all the way down, I believe that is the same one that gave me those symptoms when I swapped engines. Its either that one or the one directly below the fuse box on the drivers inner fender, but IIRC it should be the one on the rad. supp. Let us know.
