It is not as simple as most people would think. I had to research this dilemna when I was in the process of looking for alarms for my own car. Most aftermarket alarms out there do not have the "ignition off" automatic arming bypass mode. What I mean by this is that (for example a Viper 350)...if you program the unit to passively arm the vehicle, the alarm will not arm until it sees that the last door(s) has been opened while the turbo timer is counting down and the ignition is still on with the key out. I called around for alarms with this features and couldn't find any. Some of the "professional" audio installers didn't even know what I was talking about. There only suggestions...as you can see with the link above asks that you install a relay setup. The charge to install this option on most alarms was $100+. DEI (maker of VIPER, Python, etc.) calls this "last door arming". Yes, it does work but like I was saying the alarm does not know that you have already exited the vehicle...hence leaving your vehicle un-armed when the ignition is finally off via turbo timer and you are already away from your car. The only alarm that I know of with this feature, without being overpriced or too difficult to install, is a EXCALIBUR vehicle security system. I have one of there units on mine and it works fine. The unit comes with 2-four button (glow in the dark) remotes, 2-stage shock/motion sensors and a vast option of other features. Also, I bought it for under $125 bucks. Can't beat that with a stick!!!

actually the viper works well with the turbo timer, atleast mine does. I have the 850esp. the viper has a "car jacking" alarm. basically if you arm the alarm ( by pressing and holding the arm button for 2 sec ) while the veh is running the "car jacking" alarm is set. basically if you open the door the alarm goes off even if the veh is running. if the car jack alarm is armed when you shut the veh off the doors unlock to let you out and the car jack auto disarms. if you open a door then the alarm works as you have it programmed, I.E. passive arming with/without doors auto locking. If you do not open the doors for 30 seconds after the car turns off the car will re-arm and lock the doors ( thinking your in the veh still.) the doors will lock even if you have the active locking programmed on. basically with a turbo timer. this is the series of events.

turn off car and it still runs.
get out and close door.
arm veh by pressing and holding arm button (car jacking alarm).
doors lock and car is armed.
when timer counts down veh turns off and doors unlock.
30 seconds later doors lock and alarm re-arms.

this is how mine works and I have the door locks set to lock only if I press the button on the remote, yet they will relock themselves if no door is opened after car shuts off.

if you are still paranoid about someone stealing the car in that 30 second time frame there is a simple relay and toggle switch you can use to cut your fuel pump if the e-brake is dropped. or install a hidden push button starter that requires the key to work and the micro momentary button to be pushed inorder to start the car....like I did.

compustar makes an alarm that has a turbo timer built into it.

For most alarms that use the ignition kill you have to wire in a five pole bosch relay. You have to cut you ignition wire underneath the plastic cover on your steering column (large white wire) and follow the instructions you can find by searching cause I do not the rest off the top of my head.

The Viper 850esp is nice...but not everyone has $400+ to spend on an alarm when you can get one for around $125...that can do the same job for less!!

Vipers remote start/paging alarms also has the built in turbo timer also.
