Default compustar cm4000 help!!

Okay. I'm in the process of installing my New Compustar CM4000. I've got everything hooked up except the remote start. I also have the omega bypass module hooked up to the honda Imobilizer. My car is a 99 honda prelude Manual. Everything works so far, doors, lock, unlock, triggers.

I am not sure how to connect the remote start wires.

CN3 "connection3" is where i'm baffled

Some installer at best buy told me that I cannot hook the wires straight up to the car because the alarm is a negative alarm and my car has a positive charge. Can someone please look into this for me and explain this to me? I've look everywhere on the internet and i still haven't found an answer. Is this a stupid question? I don't know. I just don't wanna burn my car up.

where do i go from here?
Some step by step instuctions would be greatly appreciated.

You misunderstood him, or he is just a complete idiot, first you do not need CN3/3, it is a relay control lead for a car that has a 2nd starter wire, [yours does not], you also do not need CN3/1,5,7, and some others depending on what options you want. 94

trying to hook up the tach sensing wire to the injectors....but when I tap into any of the wires, the voltage seems to sit still (when increasing rpm) no matter what wire i tap into. What could be wrong?

The tach sense wire should be connected to either the thin blue wire on the distributor or the blue tach wire behind the cluster.

Once connected program tach. 94
