If you search the forum for Train Horns there's a couple other threads that may interest you. Just posting that one since it was the first one I came across that had some feedback.

Check with 04Denali and Spoolin, they both had/have horns that'd scare the crap out of a freight engineer!

I got my kit from Cold Fusion Nitrous, hooked it up and it worked great...for about 6 months, then the compressor took a crap on me. I met the guy that owns Hornblasters, and he said it was the way I had it hooked up that caused what happened. After that, I grabbed a compressor/tank combo, mounted it in front of the drivers side rear wheel, and the horns are attached the the torsionn bar crossmember. Everything works fine, and its loud as hell. I can post some pics tomorrow night.

I have a system run on nitrogen/C02 that requires no compressor and can fit in the wheel well
