need a horn...any recomendations?

I need to replace or add new horns...my IC is covering my horns and you can barely hear them now. So i want to know if there are some good horns out there i can get or can i just new stock one and move in front of my IC?

Ive seen a lot of STI's with these red horns. Where are people getting those? Or who makes them for that matter?

Relocate the stock ones? I mean, they're fairly loud actually to me.

i thought about it, but i think to do that, i have take off my bumper to get to my IC then take the IC off and then take the horns off...for now, that 's just not possible. It's too cold and snowing and i have no garage. And it's a lot of work That IC is too much work to take on and off , same goes for the bumper too, because i didnt take off the crash bar.

Ill search hella horns, see what comes up! thanks

I run a set of dual trumpet air horns I got at Advance. They are made by FIAMM I believe and were around $25.

Here is a pic

Most subaru owners use Hella Supertones. I think rallyarmor.com actually carries them now. A warning though, they are flipping loud, like deafening pedestrians loud.

man those double horns look bad a$$! I didnt think people moded their horns unless they really needed to !

The ugga horn just reminds me of a cartoon! haha

I think those Hella Supertones are the ones i see in the front grill of the STi's. Never heard one, but i guess that's what ill go for.

I agree. Just relocate the stock one. Save your money for something else.

I've been getting tempted to pick up a set of the Hella Supertones. I don't use my horn often, yet on the rare occasion that I do, I'm on the highway and the stock horn just doesn't do a good job of showing the other driver just how pissed off I am at them.
