haven't you tried removing the vacuum line and plugging the manifold port to see if the engine still dies when you apply the brake??

If the car failed to start with the pink/black wire unplugged have you put a test light on the pink/black and purple wire when it is plugged in to see if the power in the pink/black and purple wire is still present when you apply the brakes?.

Ok so I tested the plug pink is constantly hot even when brake is applied while purple is hot but shuts off once brake is pressed.... all this while engine is running

Ok, so:
The computer and lock up are gone
Yet, you unplug the TCC switch, and it causes no start
Has it ever worked, or is it a new build?
What engine and transmission?

I have 305 with 200r4... it was workin fine until one day this problem started.... I removed the computer myself a couple years back...but has been fine until now

It definitely sounds vacuum related, or shoddy electric work. I would disconnect all the vacuum lines and cap the ports, first. If that works, start hooking them back up one at a time. Check it with each vacuum system reconnected. If the problem shows up, that's where you need to start. If that doesn't do it, look for a wiring problem that's near the pedal (tight or pinched wire).
 
Also could any of this mess be related?... just asking... all 3 wires are ground... should I ground them too?
