It's an aftermarket box that you will have to purchase, then wire into your alarm, and leave a spare key inside. The evo has a key sensor which you will need this for remote start. g/l

DEI probably makes it. The shop would have installed it and tested it with the key you left them. Since you have to have the key to drive the car, they would have removed it from the box after testing the remote start.

The box would be somewhere under the dash near the key cylinder.

you can just tape a spare key next o the ignition switch and that will work.
or you can disable the immobilizer

DEI part number 556UW. However, you won't find many from the manufacturer, as they were replaced with learnable modules.

Not sure where the immobilizer is.

The immobilizer can be edited/disabled with ECUFlash.
