I bought an Astrostart RS2205 and it works really well. It has a built in delay for WTS and a turbo cool down timer. Installed for just under $300.00 .

good brands include the ever popular viper (lots of these systems can be connected to the WTS light to hold off starting), Code Alarm-same deal as viper, and several others. if looking for the best buy on an alarm i'd probabily go with code alarm, i had one in my old truck and loved it, it used FM signal so it had a much longer range than the equal viper setup.

I bought a crimestopper this time around. So far after 6 yrs. no problems. They are all pretty much the same when you get a "namebrand" unit. Just make sure whichever one you buy has a superheterodyne antenna and you'll get good range. If I was to do a new one today, I'd get a two way unit since the key fobs are small now.
