What's up guys, got the car about a year ago now and decide I'm finally tired of the remote alarm start, and I want to remove it. The provlembeinf is I'm in the middle if a turbo swap (waiting on turbo). This is a problem because courage veing a remote start I'm assuming if icut somewhere it's possible it won't allow the car to be turned over. So I'm curious if ican unhook the plug to the coil to turn the car over while the turbo/downpipe and intake is off jut to make sure while I'm cutting that I still have power to the car ignition.

The madness under the bay..

Fuel rail plugs etc all over but still all the wires on the firewall..

While cleaning up the engine bay I noticed this wire connected to the injector harness.. Seems to be going into the inside, more than likely to the ECU I'm assuming. Any ideas before I rip it apart?

The brown pipe is spliced in with the original wires

The wire of the injector could be for the alarm, the alarm gets the signal from the injector to know that the car all ready start and kill the starter, other wise the car would be on and the starter will keep kicking in.

About your other situation, you have to chase the alarm wires to see if you have a kill switch, if you have a kill switch, it might or might not be able to start it up.

Check the brain and fallow the wires, if there is a relay attached to it, take a pic and post it here, we might be able to determine if its a kill switch or not.

What kind of alarm you have?, check the brain and post the brand and model of the alarm.

Ah that would make sense.. If I removed that wire I could no longer use the remote start and only use the ignition as normal. Ill post a picture, I have a feeling it's fun a be a hay wire day. I do have a switch that allows me to turn it off so I can't auto start the car. Then when is switched on I'm able too.. Could this be my "switch"?
 
No, the switch just desables the alarm, you can cut the wire going to the injector, but I highly suggest to leave everything like that, and once you swap the turbo and make it run, then proceed to remove the alarm, otherwise if you have a problem, you will not know if thats because of the turbo swap or because of the alarm being removed.
