The FOB/Remote can be reprogrammed to other vehicles by inserting the key into the ignition switch, press either the unlock/lock twice, then turn the key in the ignition to the ON position within 30 seconds. So in a way, it is a universal remote. Have I tried it on a crossfire myself, no. But I would like to own one and upgrade the engine to a V8 along with testing out all immobilizer theories

Good idea but a key will not fit every car, so you cannot turn it. I think only when the SKREEM recognizes the chip will it respond to the boards signal when inserted in the ignition and authorize the synchronization. Other keys that fit and turn will be ignored because the chip does not match, seems logical to me.
