What is an induction kit and what does it do.

As induction kits are probably one of the most popular modifications for car tuning projects we thought we should add a introductory article to explain what they are, what they do and the theory behind them.

An induction kit is quite simply an air filter. Most cars have air filters mounted in an air box.

The airboxes are designed to reduce the noise of the engine and have various vanes and angles cut to maximise this noise reduction.
