I have installed a HKS Type 0 Turbo Timer (connected the right way)...I was wondering is it possible to have a turbo timer installed (which runs through the ignition switch, and e brake) and also have a REMOTE START system on a car alarm at the same time??...It to me seems like it wouldnt work, but I have no idea...??? Anyone with auto electronics experience that knows of both turbo timers and remote starts, please share you knowledge...Thanks....

Yes it is possible, you just have to know what your doing. You know they make alarm systems that has a remote start and turbo timer all built into one.

Most of the directed remote starts/alarms have a turbo timer feature built into them.

If you have a remote start that is designed for a manual tranny car, they will usually shut the car down themselves so they know the transmission state, etc. If you have a turbo timer, you'll probably have a conflict with the turbo timer shutting the car. So yeah, I guess the best solution would be to use the built in turbo timer if your remote start has it. A turbo timer is a pretty crude device, and the HKS unit won't work any better or worse than one integrated into the remote start brain.

U can leave the tt n and put on a remotestart it's not going to hurt anything.

The viper systems are made by directed. Im pretty sure all of the viper remote start alarms have the turbo timer features.
