The source of compressed air is a huge compressor (weird, but it works on 12 V) and that`s it. I`ll post a picture with the compressor. Btw, I spend 2 hours trying to figure where to mount them, in the end I dropped the compressor with a bracket under the MAF. Oh, and they sound like in a movie with Louis de Funes.

Id love to see a pic of the compressor i couldnt find one that could supply enough air in one go.
Heres a video in the underground car park.

Could do with a set of these on my truck as people who deserve a good blast rarely take notice of normal horns anymore. If a kid runs across the road on purpose and dares you to keep going by slowing down, just blast them out the way with the sound waves

Reckon one of those hornblasters kits should do the trick.
Hope the exchange rate improves before the vat rise.

Ha ha ha love it that someone else has done this. I won some train air horns on eBay and stuck them under the hood with compressor and air tank in the boot with a solenoid there as well. It is so loud.....
I used it on a cancer council fund raiser car rally through outback Aus
