Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good deep, almost practical sound combined

The product is much better made than some of the plastic models I've bought from Harbor Freight and produces a nice deep and loud sound that's pretty good for what they are is reliable. I am installing a set of two twin pumps plus a long single and two supercharger pumps. I just installed them. So if there are any durability or reliability issues, only time will tell. I installed them on a 2017 Subaru Crosstrek and found that the best place to find them was by removing the front grille, which turned out to be as simple as 2 Phillips head screws and 10 round plastic fasteners. Bracket 2 faces down at a 45 degree angle in front of the passenger side radiator with a long horn placed horizontally up in front of the radiator at a slight downward angle. The compressors will then fit snugly on either side of the top left and right of the radiator, as well as in the area between the grille and the radiator. I removed the stock horns and just made a splitter and stuck it right into the stock horn wire up front. I used another horn wire to install another duplicate set of Farbins in the cavity behind the front bumper and in front of the front wheel on the passenger side, finding very little room due to the windshield washer reservoir on the driver or left side. I added them after the first three, so I removed the bumper by simply removing a couple of round plastic push/pull fasteners (see removing the front bumper from Crosstrek youtube 2017 if you're doing this at the same time as the first three want, as this will be avoided). to remove the grille separately, as it can remain attached to the bumper and therefore does not have to be removed separately. I definitely sound like a big rig, and while not as loud as a train, it's so loud that when you honk your horn to get close to pedestrians, the unexpected surprise almost instinctively leaves people almost out of their boots with their first reaction jump, so use with caution and inconsistency.

Pros
  • Decent performance
