Key off eng still runs?

So I did a turbo LS swap in my camaro and everything is working great but when I turn the key off the boost gauge and AFR gauge lights flicker and the engine will diesel for a little while. Ive checked my grounds and they seem good. What would cause that to happen? Back feed through something? Any ideas let me know. Thanks

Usually, all else being in good shape, spark plug heat range is usually the culprit when dieseling occurs. Try a colder plug range, make sure your timing isn’t too aggressive and see if it helps.
