How exactly is it turning off? As in the engine starts to die or loss of power as if someone turned off the key? If its the latter, check your body grounds, there should be one on each side behind each headlight and of course the battery ground that connects to the body and then to the motor.

The brake booster needs to be able to hold vacuum. 90% of the time when you apply your brakes, your engine will be in vacuum...think about unplugging the brake booster vacuum line and trying to drive the car around. I doubt it'd idle. So it's possible that when you push in your brakes, the brake booster "opens" up.
So try giving it throttle while applying the brakes and see if it stays alive any 'better'.
