I had my viper istalled and after 3 days driving ok I had check engine light on. The codes show two misfire on 3 and 4 cylinder. Day after that "tarc off " light is on. Is this something related to Viper . Can viper somehow cause this failures? Two misfires happen at the same time is strange for me. My car is Toyota avalon XLS 98

I would check your engine spark plugs and/or O2 sensor(s). I do NOT think it is related to your RS.

What is "tarc off" light? is it traction light? if so, isnt there a button for it?

I am with profuse on this one, I doubt highly if the remote start has anything to do with it.

Do these issues arise when you start the car with your key? If not, then it is RS related.

If you paid a shop to install the unit (as it sounds like you did). Have them verify that both ignitions are being powered during remote start and that nothing shorted out.
