Induction noise and 'induction kit' are two very different things Im sure youll agree.

it will be the noise of the refrigerant gas flowing through the expansion valve. When u switch the engine off u may hear a hissing/gargling sound from the engine bay, again this will be refrigerant equalizing through the valve.

Cheers Barney.
My bugeye makes the sucking/woosh sound all the time when accelerating and as you hit the 2500 RPM mark and the point when the turbo starts up. It's nothing to do with the aircon - just an induction sound of air being pulled through the standard airbox/paper filter.
