jesus, a thousand dollars for that horn?
If you are willing to pay a grand for someones attention, you might as well drive your car straight into em and physically tell them whatever you wanted to warn them about.
Repairs will be cheaper than the horn

but back to leedoggs question...IMO the only way to have a "loud" horn...is air..I have experience with this horn too, cant beat it for the money...http://www.hornblasters.com/products...train-horn-kit
but then you have to factor in fittings, compressor, tank, relay, pressure switch.. etc. Itll end up costing around $500. Then where to mount them(everything...horns, tank, compressor) is a whole new obstacle. The hadley horns navarretg posted up are decent in real life too. We have them on some of my Fathers wreckers.
I have yet to see any real decent 12v horns...
maybe someone else has found a decent 12v horn??

and yes the next concern is mounting the components on the car, which is alot less forgiving then the open reality space like a truck has
as far as a decent 12v horn, just look at the air horns that use a 12v compressor to recharge the system

i think i have seen a kit for less then that though, but yes it is going to cost a couple of hundred at least to get a air horn on the vehicle though

All airhorns use a 12v compressor....IIRC autozone has a setup that doesnt even require a tank, pressure switch, etc...But that stuff is necessary once you get to the bigger setups.

[quote=justnspace;12885983]for all the people suggesting train horns....REALLY?

if you want something loud, that "commands a little more respect"....yes, really.
And yea, 1k is pretty steep, but u can find them used on ebay and shit.... and c'mon guys, we drop 4k on rims and tires, 1k(or more) on coilovers, catbacks, etc....would I put a nathan on my TL? but it all depends on what you want. and BTW, those videos dont do the trainhorns any justice..Once I heard them in person, I had to have it....
For comparison, listen to a freight train next time, those are the same exact horns, only difference is they are running about 90psi, and with an on board air system, you'd be running anywhere from 150-200psi
