I also am "new" had mine for about 3 weeks. You may have got the DEAL of the century! I also have a Viper alarm/remote start system on my Porsche. I really like its features, the remote has a display that shows the status of every interlock switch. The down side is it uses a lot of current when idle, it will drain a new car battery in 30 days.
Our cars have a factory installed alarm, not sure what you hope to gain with an after market system.
