My dad mentioned putting one on my car. I think it'd be pretty cool. A really loud air horn to scare the piss out of the gigantic SUV's. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Anyone done it?

Mount 2 supertones. One where each of your fog lights would normally go. Just as loud, and a fraction of the weight.

Besides, where would you put the air tank for the horn?

I have one on my Escort GT and people definately notice when you honk. Im thinking of getting one for the 914 too. The only problem I have is the lil compressor gets dirty sometimes and blows the fuse so i have to clean it out every now and then. I got mine at harbor frieght and it came with two horns a compressor a relay and tubing for like 18 bucks.

Toast: I would be happy to set up horns for you. I'm sure I have the hornyest horns you've ever heard on a 914. Got them after the BITCH HIT ME.

The first vehicle I owned was a '70 (hi Joe) Chevy half ton truck. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)

My uncle Don from SUN CITY(!) gave me an air horn.

It had three trumpets and played the same sound as the lunch wagons on all the jobs we would work on.

I had alot of fun with that thing.



John

P.S. I miss uncle Don, we now resume your regular scheduled programming.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif)

I've riden in a truck w/ real live Trin horns on it (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Damned horns are just over 3' long (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/drooley.gif) and probably weigh 15lbs total. They are powered in this truck off of the Airbag compessor and tank. Plumbed w/ 1/2" line (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mueba.gif)

People seiously start looking for the train when he hits the horn. it's hilarious. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

The twin horns that are stock on the two 914's I had were/are plenty loud!

I saw a Bug with air horns driven via carbon dioxide fire extingusher. Solinoid pulled the handle to release the CO2. Yeah, heads turn...very funny!

Three air horns... run them all at once for a good blast. Or alternate and attract all the turkeys from Miles' back yard!

I have the hella air horns - they are not as lous as I had hoped. This spring I will be replacing them with the 4 horn system from a 1988 Buick - took them out of my wifes grandmothers car before it was donated to charity. Sound like a freight train - scared the crap out of me when I heard it!
