We go through lots of air horns here at the Shipyard. The ones you want are made by a company named Air Chime. Don't get the crappie electric ones if you want loud...only problem is they ar technically illegal on cars & trucks used within the city. I installed a tank & Air Chime horn on a VW Bug for a friend & we installed an electric valve to operate it, then we installed a switch under the dash to switch back to the stock horn.
That thing was LOUD! Loud enough that you'd darn near crap your pants if he blasted it when you were in front of him & unsuspecting. I guess it's no wonder they're not suppossed to be used in town.
Here,s one on Ebay-
