Re: supercooler
Tomcat did a test with & without water going to an intercooler. I think he said the water only added about 30 more HP. The intercooler lets you either crank the boost up or gives you a greater margin of saftey from detonation which can & will cause engine falure.

Re: supercooler
When the air fuel mixture is cooled you can be a little more liberal on the timing without the risk of detonation. I would imagine with that in mind you would get more then a 30 hp difference.
