+1 - those items when installed force more air into the engine via a mechanical device. This enables more fuel to be sent to the cylinders and thus creating more power.

It's not considered forced induction because forced induction usually refers to air being forced into the engine.

Force induction tends to mean when things are inducted forcefully, as opposed to naturally.

Naturally, natural induction must be forced in order to be forcefully forced. Otherwise, it's neither.

I love that phrase! Forcibly forced, kinda of a double phrase phrase.
