how about once the engine is up to temp you divert the coolant from the heat exchanger to a heater core in the filter box to warm up the intake air, i'm sure you could do it in such a way that you wouldn't have to worry about a leak in the core getting into the intake. you could use a small high temp water pump to circulate it, or even have it be like a second heater core which wouldn't even need a second pump, that way any excessive heat build up would still go to the radiator.
