Default New Pics! After Swap. Sleeper

Hey Everyone. Here are the pics I said I was going to post up last week. Thanks again for all your help. I hope you guys like. By the way, the car really is something else. 100hp increase. YEAH!!!!:driving: :yay: Anyways, my car truly is a sleeper. I'm getting people telling me, "I see your car and I think 'Piece of shit must be slow' "and then they see below my hood and then they're :jawdrop:. I have test driven it around a bit, and I get to 80mph like nothing. I haven't officially started driving it because I haven't hooked up a pager alarm to it.

Supercharge it with Jackson Racing. I'm not into drag racing, so I'm not trying to get a 10-second car or anything. Just enough to say that it is fast, win or lose. (300-400hp). Anyways, I want to improve the car all around so brakes and suspension is next. But what I'm really getting next is a security system.

Actually a security system. I was thinking of a Viper 5000 2 way Car Alarm System $399.95 (http://www.drdetailshop.com/viper.htm) or Viper 791 XV 2 way Car Alarm/Remote Start System $159.00 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002U3QZE/ref=pd_rhf_p_1/002-9682605-2063222?n=3004521&no=%2A&s=electronics&v=glance) with all the specs here (http://www.drdetailshop.com/V791XV.htm).
SORRY for all the links. Like I said, I am looking into getting a security system. I know they are kind of expensive but I'm not about to go cheap on my car, especially if I just invested $4k. Let me know what you guys think. If anyone can break some of this info down for me, I will appreciate it. I don't know much about security systems.
Does anyone know how they are different? Which one is better?

Well alarms can have a bunch of different things, one can have touchier sensors (which can or cant be changed) and some have LCD keychais that show you whats what on your car at the moment. Just read the information, the more relays and higher sensitivity the better as long as you can adjust them. Honestly the more you spend the better, it's really up to your budget.
