Have you tried aybe it fell out checking your idle air screw? Maybe it fell out or you met have accidently moved itwhen you were installing the intercooler piping. The car dying when you brake sounds like what happens when the idle air screw isnt there. See the idle air screw sits in front of the butterfly on the throttle cable, it actually supports the butterfly and thus controls your idle. But if it wasnt there when you hit the brakes inertia would cause the butterfly to slam forward and kill the car. Idle air screw fell out of my Sr and I had the same problem with braking and the car dying.
