Hi guys,

I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help me in my time of need! I installed a dixie horn, which works and everything, but it's very high pitched and too quick.

I've attached how I set mine up:

I've made the tubes short and everything like that. I think it could be something to do with the coil my brother suggested (instead of going through to the boot to the fusebox). Any help would be REALLY appreciated. Thanks!!!

I dont understand what you mean by 'something to do with the coil'.

9V source as appossed to 12V?

[stardude]

its high pitched as its playing too fast, slow it down and it will lower the pitch.

to slow it down i think you would heve to incorporate some kind of resistor in the power line to the compressor

EDIT: i suppose if you used long hoses that might work????

Thanks very much, but what kind of resistor do I need to get? I don't know anything about resistors!

Do I just need to get a 9V resistor or something?

Thanks!
