Ruan, I don't know the specifics (just saying ardunio as it's common speak, like Dyson for a hoover 
) but that will certainly be covered. Taking a leaf outta Honda's ECU wiring, all the signals are shielded and the whole engine management system is referenced to one ground on the engine block. Every time I've done ECU interfacing, I always do power and GND from the ECU (such as widebands or real time programmers). Power would be switch mode and some big caps, not just a linear reg.
Good point on the bigger rad. I'm doing something similar having chopped the front panel off on a Honda and using the whole space to fit IC and rads which will take on the job of being the slam panel and bumper mounts too.
It's never going on a track (never say never) just spirited driving and mainly motorway slogging at 3rd lane speeds.
