I need your advice guys. Should I pay 500$ for a compustar unit w/ remote start OR get the new viper 5002 2-way alarm for 350ish?

 

Compustar SUCKS

 

anybody else want to chime in?

 

i have compustar and it doesnt suck...my one has auto start and built in turbo timer

 

remote start + manual car= serious risk of bodily damage

 

no ****, I mean seriously WTF?

 

my auto start doesnt work if my car is in gear

 

asdfasdf128- depend on how you park your car dude. some of us live in cold temp. therefore we leave it in gear in park. if the cold temp. isn't a problem for ya, then go for it cheers

 

and if you live and park on a hill. then you're gonna need to put it in gear

 

lol why do you say that? It is one of the best alarm systems on the market.

 

I would just get the alarm. I wanted to get the Viper 5002 but he didnt have any so i just got the 5000 Oh well.

 

1 compustar does not suck I have it and love it.
2 remote start is the sh@$. in cold or warm temps
3 the car will not start if it is in gear, the compustar computer has a sequence you have to do to set up the remote start
4 turbo timer included!!! there is extr $$ you don't have to spend

in conclusion pay the extra money you wont be disappointed

 

what model do u have and how much did u pay?

 

i had compustar on my previous truck and i had problems with it. the remote acted up a lot, somtimes it would light up, sometimes not. sometimes it would beep, sometimes not. and sometimes the remote start would cause it to mess up and not start for 39 mins, but that might have been because it wasn't installed properly or something. it was installed before i bought it.

 

seems like alarm would be the way to go then.
