So I push the buttons on the remote in my pocket, then take my hands out of my pocket and cup them around my face, and in a dramatic clearing of my voice say, "Toyota Camry start your engine!".

With proper timing the car will then immediately rev up.
I'm curious as to what installation you had completed for remote start? What keys are you pressing on your remote (fob) to get it started.

Also, when it starts, isn't it silent? My actualy engine doesn't kick in for a while, and sometimes not at all if it's not a cold start.

P.S. Do you also make balloon animals?
