So I have a little Integra, where everything is pretty much underpowered..from the engine, the stereo, the A/C, and even the horn. I live in the Bay Area where practically everyday I get cut off by some idiot driver who can't see me in his/her blind spot, and when I hit the horn it sounds like a little mouse screeching.

I'm looking for a horn then that can actually do what its supposed to do..annoy the hell out of idiot drivers. Where can I find a new one, how much would it cost, and how hard is it to install?

yeah, buy one from walmart, and stick it out the window whenever someone pisses you off. ;)

better yet, convert your air conditioning compressor to an air compressor and hook up a real air horn. As a plus, you can run impact wrenches from your car. :D:beer:

Go to a car dump/wrecking yard and find an older truck...preferably a larger utility type truck...

Train horn. Then sit on the side of the railroad tracks at night and when somebody comes by, blow the horn and turn your headlights on. :D

How about staying out of people's blindspots? If you're going to pass them then hit the gas and pass them.

I read an article in the NY Times a while ago on a guy who made it a project of his to put a loud horn in his car.

It wasn't an easy process and he needed an extra battery to power a huge compressor. I doubt your car would have enough room for an extra battery let alone a huge air compressor under the hood.

He said his car was an Integra, hence underpowered. :)

I think you should get a sonar. That would blow their windows out! :D

i upgraded my civic horn with one from the local auto store. it doesn't sound particularly mean but it's a definite step up from the OE horn. they also had air horn setups but they looked too big to mount on my grille.
