Did I mention grounds?
That's how I did it. Basically the power wires exit the unit towards the passenger side of the firewall and run towards the battery on that side of the car, hidden in the inner fender.

The signal wires, like the 02, the cable for the touch screen, the temp and oil pressure sensors, as well as the fuel pressure sensor sending info back to the unit all exit towards the driver side firewall and pretty much stay on that side of the engine comparment.

Pretty simple really.

Unfortunately it all comes out of the back of the unit right at the distributor on the engine, but there is nothing you can do about that other than try to split it and keep some distance as much as possible. Hasn't seemed to matter on either car though.
