fuel pump shut off and if you want to tune it urself u can get an added bonus...tweecer...you can set a tune to have no fuel, very low rpm max, all kinds of disabling stuff.
The Tweecer is my theft prevtion took as well. Set your anti-theft tune for the first selection slot and it will default to it when you remove the selector dial. So just unplug one simple jack and walk away, and your car won't start or run.

Ok you guys got me thinking. The viper alarm im looking at comes with the paging feature and a starter kill. How long would it take a smart criminal with tools to get threw that?

When I park it in a remote area wear im to far away to be paged and no alarm is loud enough to be heard how much can I rely on that starter kill that the alarm gives me?

Next kill switches. If I get these done perfessionally what are the chances they will malfunction? Im thinking one for the fuel pump close to the drivers seat but hidden, then one more for when im really going away that is hidden really good that would take forever to find.
Who would I go to to get this done? Any reccomendations on switches? Thanks :-)

you can do the kill switch urself. all u got to do is run the switch so that when its tripped/circuit opened it cuts the power off to the pump. and that way only u kno where its at.

some one i kno has the viper and its like $700 or $800. tweecer with datalogging (r/t model) is $530. you can tune the car and disable it also!

im going to tweecer disable it and then put a kill switch in...if some one can get away with the car..they would have to break in, jimmy the key, get it in neutral, then tow it off...if they do that then they must want the car pretty bad lol

yes 2 times, someone tried to steal my car, but he is in jail.

The BEST AND CHEAPEST, alarm is a wireless driveway pager.

The little motion detector is inside the car, with a 9v batery installed that last 6 months min, 24x7 use.
Its floods the car with an infared omni directional signature trace.


YOU have the receiver, it transmits a DIGITAL DATA SIGNAL 1/4 mile away.

$20.00
, there is NO WAY to beat this alarm , the door opened, window busted, this WILL PAGE you and wake you up. LOUDER THAN A SMOKE ALARM.

I have two, one in car, one covering the outer perimeter, its so sensitive cats are even picked up.
When im not home my neighbor has the receivers
