supplied templates to drill ¼” holes in the locations shown. (Dual kits only
have two templates).
Stock Components Removal
Remove the top 4 AGS flaps to allow clearance for the BIG MOUTH intakes.
You can flex these flaps at their center, and then bend them downward to
unhook the engagement pegs. See below.
AGS Simulator
This assembly was engineered and tested to allow the AGS to continue to
function, which will prevent a soft code from showing up on the dash for some
13th gen F-150 models.
AGS Simulator
Use Allen key to fasten the sandwich together, tighten until snug, do not
over-torque.
AGS Simulator
Finalize the assembly by screwing the 5mm bolt into the ears, ensure they
bottom out and go through the AGS peg-holes as shown. (You can manually move
the AGS to align the peg holes).
AGS Simulator Testing
Once the AGS Simulator install is complete, temporarily reinstall the
bumper (no need to fully fasten yet), reconnect the AGS motor, turn your car
on and allow the AGS system to perform its initiation cycle. If your flaps
successfully open and close without interference, the install is successful
and the AGS is fully functional.
Assemble BIG MOUTH Ram Air
From underneath the cowl openings, align the BIG MOUTH ram air intakes with the holes drilled, and fasten with supplied button head screws.
QUAD kits have all 4 functional ducts, DUAL kits have ducts A and B only.
BIG MOUTH intakes have letter designations stamped on them. See chart for
installation locations.
Finalize
You can make an adjustment to the BIG MOUTHs to ensure they are level. Place
bumper on the vehicle however do not fasten it yet, inspect visually for
alignment and level of your BIG MOUTH intakes. If you need more adjustment, go
back and drill bigger holes in the shroud to allow play room, then tighten as
needed. You may add shims between the cowl shroud and the BIG MOUTH fastening
points to help with leveling for your particular vehicle.
