Don't just dissconnect it, remove it.
At least for summer time operations.
The intake heaters in power strokes and duramaxes presents a huge air flow obstruction. They are the tightly wound coil type heaters.
The grid type cummins intake heaters I am use to seeing are a much better design but still obstruct some air flow.
I have seen grid heater delete kits for cummins, they are out there.
