WRONG!
I have the Hella tripple air horns and it is a vast improvment but nothing like a semi. They also have other smaller ones out.....you can search and easily find info about it, it has been covered many times...

Rep Power: 348 I looked really quick and couldn't locate working sound clips and I don't know how I could record them cause I dont have a digi cam let alone anything to record sound/video with. But if you ask Grey nicely he might still have his clips that you could use.

Rep Power: 0 The Freeway Blaster by FIAMM. 
Get the "F" for the low note and the "E" for the high note. Install the 2nd one on the passenger side. Now you have two 130dB blasts at the same time. Also refer to the DIY for the horn replacement, and the FIAMM website for the horns. "F" and "E". They cost me about $12 a piece from Advance Auto Parts plus they are pretty easy to install too... Despite the removal of the front bumper.

Anyway, the Hella triple air horns are louder than the Fiamm triple air horns. They last longer too. Mine blew out when I hit one of the compressors when hitting a black snow curb. I didn't feel like purchasing another compressor. I switched to Hella's electric horns. I haven't installed those fully yet, but I think they'll be better 'cause they won't die on me due to vibration and/or water. Registered!!

Rep Power: 348 I have the Hella Triple Air horns also and I have no regrets, they are nice for scaring people that cut you off! I installed mine above the black plastic and left in there so my compressors are protected fromt he water and such.....
