hi all,
i’ve been looking into getting myself a train horn… it’s sick… i absolutely love it , and those video’s are just too funny, can’t stop watching them.
i also want that gruelsome effect… a member pointed out that he got 3 different sets before he got the effect he wanted
so i’m probably looking into buying a 300-500 USD premium kit (as recommended by Hornblasters to all their customers)… i figured a bargain-train-kit would do it, but quickly realised this is not how a true hornblasters would deem fit… they’d go bigger
but i don’t wanna spend 1000s dollars on it, even though those horns seem the best, i don’t have any room to fit these huge horns and tank
So i’m starting to think either one of these will do the job, keep in mind i have a compact car (suzuki swift old model)
The video’s on youtube are very convincing
Shocker 232XL Train Horn Kit
Shocker 240XL Train Horn Kit
[b]my questions are, will this horn scare people, so that it is satisfying ? (have yet to see train horn pranks with the shocker 232 / 240)
if anyone thinks it will not fit my car, let me know.
and have people ever experienced overseas shipping? i live in Amsterdam… is the shipment insured? would be a bummer to lose 500 usd over a horn.[/b]
i’d appreciate your reply
i’m looking forward joining the hornblasters community with my horn to scare all the roadrage people for instance
Those will scare people. heck I have those horns at 150psi and smaller line, and scared a poop ton of people last night. and If you go more psi and bigger airline, you cant do any worse than me. Go for it you wont regret it.
will this horn scare people, so that it is satisfying ? (have yet to see train horn pranks with the shocker 232 / 240)
It will scare the crap out of everyone trust me!
if anyone thinks it will not fit my car, let me know.
I think it will fit cuz you can mount the shocker separated like one in the front, two in the back, one inthe side…

Ask “Stinkypete” he lives in UK and he bought a shocker kit and he is loving it… Give a call to hornblasters they are really nice and they can help you outwith any question u have. Hope this help
and let’s say i buy this system, would it do a K3LA any justice? or would one have to consider buying a new compressor/tank to go along with that horn? i really like the video’s where the cars having a horn battle with passing trains… sounds great
i just don’t know what to pick for the best bang… i guess both i mentioned will do fine, considering there’s a lot more train horn kits for less money
again thanks. PS. would anyone have a video where’s people getting scared with the Shocker S4?
and are Shocker S4, authentic train horn? or just aftermarket?
thanks for your time… i’m really looking into getting one… i love building stuff on my car (have a trambell, and a Stebel Magnum TM 80 horn on it)
but a train horn would be ultimate fun… i’d love standing in the harbour nearby honking my uberloud horn at passing ships
if you are thinking on getting a k3la try to get a 5 gallon air tank with a viair 480c compressor… all those chrome horns in ebay, etc are china made they won’t sound as loud as the shocker trust me my first horn was one of those chrome one and when i first got my shockers i was like wow… here is a vid of the shockers! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzuTxgKTSZQ …
glad u liked the vid! yea they are the shockers from hornblasters
here’s another video showing the echo and chord of the horns http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5nT1GXDAk0
im already convinced that i’m willing to get one, it’d be stupid not to get one… should be ordering one soon enough… the USA money press is on the roll, to i’m wait it out a bit to see if exchange gets any better
should’ve ordered one i december last year, my euro would’ve been worth nearly USD 1,50
this train horn might even motivate me to stop a nasty dutch habit, the green one.
