Strange Problem, Blew EGI fuse

i was driving home one night and decided to get happy in 3rd gear. i hit about 10-11 psi and the engine completly died. I checked the egi fuse and it was blown. i borrowed a fuse for my headlight motors and it seems to run fine now. what gives?

Even if it happened once, that's probably still the problem.

I had the same problem in my car about a week ago, I kept blowing out fuses. Turned out there was a wire under my air intake that was stripped and grounding against the side of the car whenever I hit a bump in the road. Check all of your wiring from the fuel pump, and also the wires under your airbox. Hope this helps.............
