THROW IT AWAY!
Any unit that relies on oil pressure or the charge light is by definition rubbish!
Pins 5 & 6 aren't needed.
You will also have a factory immobiliser, you will need a by-pass e.g. DEI 556 for that.

It lets the remote start know that the car is running so it doesnt over crank the starter. If the unit does not have a tach wire then i would recommend not using it.

ok if good understand the pin 7 and 8 is unnecessary therefore i don't connect. But if i not connect the central, he don't know if the engine is starting or not?

If you completely wrap the head of the key with aluminum foil (no plastic showing) can you still start and drive the vehicle? If not then you still have the immobilizer and will need a bypass.

VAGCOM won't delete the immobiliser, you need dealer secured software* or bonded locksmith level 3 software where they access the particular vehicle code and erase the immobiliser software lines.
pos = piece de merde.
*And here in the UK most VW dealers won't even admit to it.
Plus you are going to have to kill the factory alarm, again see above.

The wire you need, i.e. tach sensor wire isn't on your unit, that tells us the quality, hence my earlier "throw away" reply.
THIS R/Start WILL NOT WORK, get a reputable brand, Viper etc., DON'T go through ebay and I will be glad to give you all of your wiring connections for your vehicle.
This unit doesn't have a close facility, e.g. comfort close with factory power windows where as a reputable product will have.
Also if your Golf is manual rather than auto, it's unsafe NOT for manual vehicles.
