First of all take off your caps dude. Second somewhere in your car there is a short. Try looking for bare wires that are touching. You don't need to use that many ! marks either.

Hope your car gets better.

Usually is a short in the injector wiring when it pops EGI fuses.

Check the wires that go to the injectors. Remove the tape and check if they are cut or bare.

Or you've got a bad injector, or you tightened a bolt down and the injector wire was stuck beneath it, or the manifold, there's a million possibilities, going to have to take it apart and check.

Writing in all caps is considered shouting. Please turn off your caps lock when posting. This is warning number 1. It would also be so nice if you didn't use such obnoxious subject lines.

As others have said, you have a short in your wiring somewhere. Start with what you have changed recently, so all wiring around the injectors and upper intake. Also, did you match injector impedances? If they are too low, then won't blow fuses, but may damage the ECU over time (the drive transistors will burn out).

your resistors could be grounding or shorting out under there.
