6 volt horn from a 54 chevy on a momentary contact switch. It'll rattle your teeth. It works really well for setting off car alarm systems too, my record is 6 at one time in a parking lot.

You want an air horn, trust me...

I have a train horn on my truck and it's about 150db. You wouldn't believe how loud it is. I blew it at an old man once when he pulled out in front of me and he swerved off the road and hit the grass to get out of my way.

Follow this link and look at a kit that has the King horn in it. That's what I have.

Of all of the money I spent on my truck I enjoy the train horn the most. Everytime I drive the truck I find an excuse to blow it at someone...
