Since the cost is low I would suggest getting a couple different values so you can fine tune the sound you want. For example you can get a 1/2, a 1, and a 2, and using them singly or in series you can get values from 1/2 to 3 ohms in 1/2 ohm increments. I did this and a single 1 ohm resistor sounded best with my horn.
