what research? and what features? It has built in window rollup, passive starter kill(meaning even if you yank the brain of the alarm the car won't start), wireless remote fuel pump disable(also known as blackjax, and THE ONLY ONE on the market), more built in relays than you can shake a stick at, programmable from remote or laptop, nightvision(it turns the lights on automatically at dusk), dual zone omni sensor remotely adjustable, self powered siren, digital tilt/motion sensor, and coded valet?????? Oh no wait that's an avantguard 4....hmmmm...and only $467 from here http://www.adelcom.net/CLIFFORD-avantguard-4-Page.htm
It's up to you, I have an RS3 on my bike, an avantguard 4 in my wifes car and a beast of alpine 8080 in my accord, and I'd take the avantguard any day. I installed for 5 years during school, and from experience my favorite alarms are prestige, not because they are are pieces of crap, but because I could have it installed in 15 minutes lol, and I charged 2 hours labor(the fun of being a sub-contractor), I hated cliffords, not because they are the hands down best alarm around, but because it took me hours to do a nice install with them 
:rofl:
:rofl:
The AvangGuard4-hands downt he best all around alarm on the market:thumbup:
barto-what was it that made you decide that the compustar was the best alarm out? Im very anxious to hear this. I checked them out, and honestly bro, the only good thing about them is the pager ability, cool looking lcd display that works from quite a distance(of course, only under the most ideal of circumstances) but it is lacking big-time in true security features. Did you see the list of featurs illusion rattled off? That's major stuff there, and he didn't even mention the intellistart remote starter(works on manual tranny, eliminates the possibility of starting the car if it's left in gear
) This alarm will run up over a G w/installation, but Clifford has quite a few other alarms that have many of the features listed above that are worth it(Matrix line not included).
