People like you make this kind of toys illegal.

I was bicycling on the side walk the other day and a car drove close and honk it's horn for no reason. It was a busy road too.

I wanted to put some loud horn in my car too for when people cut me off. Hate it when ppl cut me off and than do speed limit.

I was able to fit the hornblasters kit which utilizes 4 horns on my 2nd gen gs. I run them at 200 psi as well so they output somewhere north of 180 decibels. People dont cut me off so often anymore.

I managed to fit them all and run them off of my air suspension tanks, so 6 gallons of volume at 200 psi. I'm assuming you decided to not utilize their 4 way splitter and used a tee?

Any side affect from such loud sound to your car's other components?

do U replace your OEM horn or installed it as an extra with extra button?
