It's a lot easier to route a couple of heater hoses, than it would be to fabricate something that could take usable heat off my ceramic coated headers. Besides, with the way my stock induction system is set up, I think it'd be next to impossible to route hot exhaust-heated air from the left bank and still have it be kept warm enough to do anything meaningful. The filter sits on the front of the right fender.

I also consider coolant to be a more stable source of heat.
