hi i'm going to take a sports car in through in a ton of weight just to have an airhorn to scare people as if having a bright blue 350z wasn't enough of a cry for attention

when i say dual, i mean dual three trumpet horns, not one horn with two trumpets, ebay is the shiznit picked up both for $70, one under each front frame rail, need to mount them a little safer once i fab up a new front skidplate, almost lost the right one to a fence i ran over at the entrance to some yuppie subdivision on lake wheeler rd., with a 5 gal tank i get about 8 seconds of a loud blast, then it takes a few minutes to pump back up.

i need pics of your setup, man. that is the only spot i could find feasable to mount my horns on my truck and that spot wouldn't have been possible without the body lift. i wanted to mount them up front somewhere but could not find a decent spot without them being visible. what size line you running to yours? i'm running 3/8 and i only get 8-9 seconds before the tank is drained and i only have one set.

1/4" is plenty, and if you mount your horns as far away from the tank as you can, it gives you a little more time, but not quite as loud. i have the horns mounted flat on the bottom of the front frame rails under the bumper, the tank under the bed, and the compressor in my toolbox. i have 3/8" line going from my tank to the compressor, with a tee and a quick disconnect stickin out of the toolbox to run air tools with. it usually runs about 125 psi, but it takes it a while to recover from 80 where it kicks in. i need a bigger tank but have no where to put it.

everything i've read about air horns is the more volume you deliver, the louder they are. on my original setup, i had a set of fire engine horns (the old kind, similar to today's dumptruck horns). the engine they came off of had 1/4 supply line but when i installed them on my truck with 3/8, there was a huge difference in tone and db level. i plan on adding another 5 gal. tank to my setup in the near future. i have since added a quick connect to the port next to the gauge on my tank for air tools, fill tires, etc. i also replaced that shitty Viair compressor with a Thomas. the thomas fills up the tank twice as fast and is no where near as loud. check out the pedal switch for the air horns. pics are in my gallery.

if you want the loudest sound, you need at least a 1 gal tank close to the horns, with a large line to your main tank
