Sounds like something is shorting and creating a circuit when it moves under acceleration. Bit of a needle in a haystack to find where.

Take your air box out and check the wires under there.

 

Seems to be the cause to me as your air box will move under acceleration and has probably rubbed the wires and makes a short every time you accelerate
