Yes, these systems are excellent for any forced-induction or high compression engine. You won't gain any power, but it will allow you to run more boost or timing with the same fuel. A nice side-effect is that it steam cleans your pistons, too. You won't get any carbon build-up. I suggest that you join the turboICE forum. There is a lot of good info.

They won’t give you more power by themselves but will allow for more aggressive timing and or boost. (hence more power). We ran alcohol through them on our Syclones Typhoons and Supras with awesome results. However unless you used a good system alcohol would eat it up. We used the Aquamist systems.

An expensive unit but VERY hi quality and well worth the price.

Here's a WI system on my small block chevy, F.A.S.T ECU, M3 Procharger, Aquamist SYSTEM 2d - Full 3-D water injection system without programming. It keeps track of the fuel flow and inject water with a fixed w/f ratio, change jet for different ratios. Works off an amplifier off the DC of the Fuel Injection.
