Shalom ******. Unless your B5 is from Europe it doesnt have a transponder, that is if you are referring to the key transponder.

I fear my good man that it is from Europe as myself am an English man.... Is it possible to bypass the transponder since your car doesn't even need it. Thanks Allie.

AFAIK it isn't too simple to do as there isnt a simple wire you can short out to fool the system. The various modules of the car communicate to read the key and tell the ECU its ok to start the car. I think you need to find an ECU that doesnt need an immobilizer or get it coded out by a ECU tuner but Im not sure.. Read this, I found it on google and it looks pretty detailed: Immobilizer - Ross-Tech Wiki

Most information my good man... If I'm ever across the water and I've been Vegas 7 times I will look you up and drag you a couple of slurps in to blow the froth off.
