All sizes of Herions that EKMW used to used had a real distinct "barking" sound. But as Parkers are no longer available. Hook the "blow in" style party favors to the dumps. That outta sound unique.

my blitzluft valves are so loud they make your ears ring when your close to the truck. parkers are by far my favorite sounding valve!

smc's are not loud and never will be.They do make a small barking sound but thats about it.Parker made a valve in the late nineties that becaame famous due to it's speed and ear pearcing bark.I found a used set a few years ago but havn't seen them in a while.Parkers seem to last forever so if you see a set snatch them up.The loudest scariest valve in the world.Grip//NC\\OKC

What ? mine are louder than shit at 160psi and they are SMC 1/2 300psi valves

If you think smc's are loud you have never heard the old parkers.

two of the most annoying things at a show.....loud valves and train horns. Throw throw those in the mix with 35 stereos playing different songs and you feel like blowing your head off

Them Herion valves are still some of the badest valves out there. Not only do they sound good but I've seen some high pres. put to them valves (NITROGEN,HELIUM) and never seen or heard of them to stick open.

run high pressure and anything will bark.

My 3/8th GC's barked at 180psi. My 3/8 SMC's barked at 180psi. Neither bark at 140psi.

i'm talkin about airing up. for dumps, get the biggest valve you can :lol:

i have silencers on mine now, but if someone would come up with a whoopie cushion insert or something, i'd be all over it. I think it'd be funny as hell to drop the truck and have it sound like a big fart.

I agree..I have silencers on new Blitz valves.I dont find air ride that big of a deal..So i dont want any more attention than i will already have. Sometimes less is more.

I have 1/2" blitzluft valves and they're pretty loud. seems to be that any 1/2" valve is gonna be loud. plus...more psi you run the louder they'll be. mine went to 400psi over night once and when i dumped it...it was crazy loud. i thought i was gonna wake the neighbors.
