    What's the biggest and baddest car horn available in the market? No price constraint. The type that would put train horns to shame?

    magsisibak ng pasaway sa daan..

    related questions:

    1. hindi ba magiging issue sa yearly registration sa LTO pag nagpalit ka ng startling/very loud na busina?
    2. sa mga air driven horn system, kaya ba niyo ang continuous operation for atleast 10 seconds?

    1. Di naman nila tintignan yan kahit na dapat tinitignan yan as part ng vehicle inspection
    2. May air horn ako, Stebel GP-2. Parang nagawa ko na itong ibabad ng 10 seconds dati. Kaso ayaw ko na, mas malakas pa ata ang Hella Supertone ko. Plus love ko ang bing bing sound

    Cathy, kung ako ah, personal opinion ko, Mitsuba Dolce II, mga 3 sets :naughty2:

    Cath, in general, air horns with compressors are the loudest types of horns you can get. However, they are expensive and complicated, and I'd much rather suggest you go with several pairs of conventional horns in order to make a statement on the road.

    Personally, I have 2 pairs of Bosch EC6 horns because I like the "pot-pot" sound. This is loud enough to startle unruly pedestrians (tried and tested on a daily basis) and consistent enough to be blasted for 30 seconds straight on annoying motorists without "paos".

    An equally common alternative would be 2 pairs of Bosch Europa horns, for the "bing bing" sound. I think 2 pairs of Europas are marginally louder than EC6's, but are also much more expensive (2.5k for a pair vs. 900 for the EC6). I'd get them for a change, in case I buy a second car or my Ranger's EC6's conk out.

    95% of the time, these horns (or other loud equivalents such as Stebels) would be sufficient and you'd be louder than the majority of the traffic. Yesterday though, I felt so dwarfed when I was honking at a bus, then a 2014 F-150 with air horns started honking too and completely drowned out my pot-pot.

    Also, I think you should reconsider your stance on not changing your car's horns. It's one of the simplest and cheapest mods you can do that is almost entirely fool-proof, and doesn't affect the rest of your warranty.

    Chief, may audio/video sample ka ng two pairs of EC6? Meron kasi sa ACE Hardware dito almost 700 lang for a pair, may relay na bang kasama yun? Ako na lang magkabit, destroy it yourself
