If you make a kill switch for your engine, like cutting the signal to the injectors or from the cam-/crankshaft position sensor, then you can wire in a second switch as theft protection - install it in a hard to see place and flip it whenever you leave the car.
A low rated fuse could be added so it would start then quit. This was used on the old cars to to break the 12v to the coil. One side of the switch for normal operation and one side anti theft. Nobody wants a poor running car.
