Question Has anyone added/changed/modified their lame OEM horn to a SUPER LOUD horn?

I am thinking of a super loud a$$ horn for my next mod. Can't stand idiots cutting me off etc and only getting a mediocre blast back. My old '87 325i had a horn with some ballz on it, so what's up with the newer BMW's horns really sucking?

Haha, but seriously, a loud horn is a safety issue in my book. I've retrofitted my BMW motorcycle (R1150GS Adventure) with a nice loud aftermarket horn because it can become a true life & death saver when on the highway etc.

having a horn like that would be best in a 3rd world country where no one listens, but here, its just annoying and dont see why you would need it!
