AFAIK, an induction kit will work on a new age, but will give no benefits (other than a bit of noise) and may lower your power due to upsetting the air/fuel mixture.

On a classic then it is likely that you will damage your MAF sensor pretty quickly, leading to a £££ bill.

On either car, not recommended, unless you are pushing out more than 350bhp when the std air box is too restrictive.

What year is your car?
What do you mean by decent induction kit?

Strange you like the induction sound but dislike the vta...... plus the induction kit has no bearing on the dump valve,leave the airbox on and fit an uprated panel filter for best results
