Boosted 370z turned off while driving

Tested compression, fuel pressure, etc… all were good. The only thing that would make a difference is if we sprayed starter in the manifold and you can hear it try to start. We pulled the injectors keeping them attached to the rail and harness to see if they sprayed when starting the motor. They sprayed so fuel is fine but when we put the injectors and rail back we were checking the coils and plugs and noticed the spark plugs were dry. Obviously there’s an issue with either the engine harness or injector harness causing a short when the rail is in the right spot.

Is there any idea what would cause this to happen? My car has only shut off during the same circumstances. Only when I start hitting boost and let off, both times because I thought I saw a cop or suspicious headlights.
