The one labeled "IC106" controls the wastegate solenoid and fuel pressure solenoid. Your problem is either a faulty solenoid or a short in the wiring causing the excessive current.

If your isc was bad, you would have smoked the one labeled "IC107" or "IC105".

Found this !
 
correct me if im wrong but you said ic106 was blown it looks like ic105 am i right.. thats the isc one right? would a bad isc cause that to blow because i dont want to get a new one put it in then have it blow again

That's correct. If I remember correctly IC105 is the one that can also blow like that if C106 up front leaks and shorts the ISC trace that runs under it to it's 12v pad. However it sounds like you found a shorted ISC coil.

so if i replace the isc it should be good once i get a new ecu? i dont want to blow it right away again haha
