No, if you get that tank and compressor, in the future your gonna have to get a new tank and compressor, cause if you look at the tank there trying to sell ya, its a 2 in 1 meaning they already have it hooked up and you only have looks like 2 ports, I'm telling you man I bought one of them my first time around and it was a waste of money. When you honk your only gonna get 1 good honk with that small of a tank, so that means the compressor is gonna have to keep filling it back up, and its not a heavy duty compressor, so it will break in no time. I had my on for about 2 weeks before my compressor went out.

Here is my set up, horns right up front. 3 1/2 gal tank, viar 380c compresser. Everything is set up for 200psi but I ended up with a 140 switch. Wired the compresser up to my power from the trailer lead under the truck, only comes on with the key, got a rocker in truck to from stock horns to both stock and air using the steering wheel. Best part is I can honk them with the remote





You can just see them under the push bar.
