Anything as far as aftermarket air horns?
 
Is there an aftermarket airhorn that would be better than stock? Or does the stock do everythign just fine?

Just curious

aftermarket ones are better but not worth the money

How much better? What do they go for generally?

I spent ~$300 to put onboard air + a set of Kong train horns on the 1st Gen:

Worth it? Who knows. They are scary wicked loud, way cool, and I'm all set for that ARB locker up front now, if I ever get around to that.

I think he is talking about air intake horns if I am not mistaken

From what I have heard the only ones that they make much difference on is the 3rd gens and dont do much at all for the 2nd's

Yes the air intake horns, sorry guys. But what do they do for the 2nd gens as far as power/boost/economy?

from what I have been told on the subject they dont do much for them at all but look pretty. Everyone that I have asked about them have said spend the money on other/better mods that will actually gain you something. I dont have any first hand experience with them but that is what I have been told when I have asked the same question. Hope this helps you out man.

Ok thanks for the input guys. Guess the stock cummins air horn will suffice!

Save your money for other mods, I have a twin ram on my truck and felt very little difference by my seat o pants meter.

But when I had my pyro hooked up it lowered my egt's by 50 and I also lost 4 psi of boost due to increased volume
