I need a better horn, the Z's horn is just lame-o.....

I haven't kept up with Ecutek features, is there still no end user tuning?

I swapped mine for Hellas

I'm going to change mine eventually. I've been putting it off because I don't really have a good place to work on my car. It's a PITA to even change the oil in the garage I've got now. The place I'm interested in has enough room for the toolbox, compressor & two cars, with enough space in front of the car to drop the front bumper.

I was surprised at the 370z's horn. I was expecting a Japanese car horn.

I'd have words with the person that last did the oil change, unless it was you.....

If it was you.... 100 lashes with a broken serpentine belt.....

See a few post earlier.
I install a second horn in my Z today. Keeping the stock and adding a 139 dB
Dorman , low tone horn. I know, Hella & Stebel are "top dog" around here. But I don't like that two tone European/Ricer sound. Sounds good, American. Loud, but I don't think so loud that people are gonna start shooting at me.
Cheers

I picked up Stebel's compact truck horn. Single tone, low 300Hz frequency. Sounds like an 18 wheeler - not ricer at all. On sale for $47 via Amazon Prime

Got any tips on the install? I figure it should be pretty straight forward.
