I've seen these setups...

They are awesome... fast enough to run air tools with no tank.

Total overkill.

You'll love it.

I'm not joking.

If you search around the 4x4 forums you can find instructions on how to get the same thing out of an old A/C compressor.

Could this be used for an air horn setup??

Yea it sure can. Extreme overkill. But that is the Hummer way....

You might want to consider one of the $100-200 "real" 12vDC air pumps you can buy.

They cost less and space is at a bit of a premium under the hood. You need to leave room for the supercharger, intercooler, dual battery kit, winch solenoid, aftermarket airfilter, and underhood airhorn.

Not to mention the fact that at some point you might want to get some accessories...
