I drive an 8th generation Galant EA0 station Wagon. Its the japan style version, as i´m from Germany. Influenced by my first horn kit vom Hornblasters.com ( the Outlaw 127VX) i want to get a bigger horn. And now its ready to blast people away:
The K5LA is installed on the roof. The train horn is hooked up by the roofreeling of my car. The pressure is generated by a diving bottle that is hidden in the reserve trunk space of the car. The bottle has 12liter and an pre-pressure of about 200bar ( 2900psi). The pressure is regulated by a pressure reducer low to an output between 9-20bar (130-290psi).
The air is pushed by an standart 12mm line to the horns.
i just forget to close the trunk door when i started for the test drive
I´m not sure about the total time. I have blast the horn a several times. I think its about 2-3Minutes until the bottle is empty. I will to check this - but its hard to find some free space where nobody lives so i can test.
i have tested also 15 and 18bar last days, but just for some few seconds. I want also to test the loudness, because i´m not sure about the dezibel the horn does.
I can fill the bottle in every diving shop. The filling cost me 3,60€. I think this bottle is the best way to power the horns. You dont need a big compressor and that big tanks. All is nicely hidden in the trunk.
The police have not met me until know - i thinkthey would be a little bit shocked - but who dont
TR= Trier, the oldest City from Germany, near Luxembourg. But if you are interedted to meet me, send me some mail. Next year i´m near Erfurt, thats nearer to you.
