How does the range of the 996c compare to the Viper 791? I have not heard any complaints about the quality of their equipment either.

The range on both are outstanding, but the DEI seems to have a little longer range than the prestige. I personally have the 791XV an I installed a 996 in my girls car. I have never had a problem with either of tham and found both to be great units. The one thing is that the 996 has a few more options such as a countdown timer for the remote start, temperature sensor, time/date stamp ect.. The viper does not come with these types of options. But all in all they are both good units!
