Driver Side Hole Location
Remove the stock shroud to allow for installation of the BIG MOUTH. Hold on
to the pop-up retainer clips that retain the shroud. An OEM retainer clip will
be used later to install the BIG MOUTH.
Remove Stock Components
Remove the indicated air intake assembly by undoing the indicated bolts and
plastic push clip.
Civic Type R: Add Brass Insert
To install the Civic Type R BIG MOUTH, you will need to press fit the provided
M6 brass insert into the indicated hole. It is highly recommended to use
cyanoacrylate (CA)/super glue to help keep the insert in place. Using heat is
NOT recommended.
Screw the M6 x 40mm screw into the insert, add the glue around the insert (do
not let glue get in the threads!) and press fit until the insert is flush. Use
the screw to ensure the insert has gone in straight. Remove the screw and let
the glue dry for 15 mins.
When installing the BIG MOUTH, fasten the screw by hand and tighten 1/8 of a
turn with Allen key. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN as you could pull the insert out.
Remove Stock Components
Loosen (no need to remove) the indicated bolts just enough to allow the section of frame to flex (left). Position the BIG MOUTH such that the round protrusion lines up with the hole in the section of frame (right).
BIG MOUTH Installation
Use the supplied M6 x 40mm cap screw and OEM retainer push clip to fasten the BIG MOUTH at the shown locations. DO NOT OVERTORQUE.
Use the supplied #8 screw and fender washer to fasten the BIG MOUTH from the top. DO NOT OVERTORQUE.
Once the BIG MOUTH has been fastened through all 3 points, re-attach the section of frame and stock air intake components that were removed/loosened prior to install. The BIG MOUTH should feel sturdy and free of any interference.
Final Assembly Review
Review the install and make sure nothing is binding or causing any preload on any parts, loosen and retighten if adjustment is necessary.
