Hey There guys n gals!

if you were to start fresh with a new car which alarm would you pick?
There are some new units out there and I wanted to see if there was something that you preferred over my current choice, which is a 791xv

My main concerns are;

Remote start, (highly prefer lcd with confirmation)
Turbo Timer

and ability to add additional accessories.

Anything you recommend me considering?

I plan on adding the following accessories;
if DEI, 530T remote start
Extender
522T trunk release solenoid.

508d dual zone.

520t battery backup
and a few extra piezos

Thanks in advance!!

BTW Here is the car it is going into.

1996 Eagle Talon TSI AWD

If you are using mostly DEI accessories it's easier to add them to a DEI alarm, I would say that the viper is a good choice, maybe if you don't want a two way consider the new clifford G5, its got a better range, but no confirmation.

Not quite, they were just, "In theories" if I did choose the 791xv

If I chose a different "brain" I would get similar accessories that correspond with the correct brand.

Clifford G5.5.....

I did the 785XV in my car, not a bad piece at all at it's pricepoint. I find turbo timer to be rather useless is you are using good oil (resists coking on the turbo shaft bearings/bushings) A decent synthetic oil is the way to go... Motul rocks.
