Default Carb heat for FI induction system?
Does anyone install Van's carb heat for fuel injection systems to keep ice off the filter assembly?

Default Yes
Yes we do. It's not called carb heat on F.I., It's called alternate air and Van's sells a kit to install it, or you could roll your own.

Default Thanks
For the prompt response. I was just reading the alternate air threads, which clears up my current confusion.
