I think the main bonus with water meth injection was the theory behind it.
Your adding a substance which each molecule is made of 2 oxygen and 1 hydrogen..
Oxygen is what gives the burn.
In 1 cubic meter your getting only 27% oxygen, so not very efficient.
And the transfer of energy. The water absorbs the heat and turns into vapour..
There are lots of bonuses.. But there are downfalls. Water weight is a main.
The setup can be a pain.
If I was looking for that bit extra easy I'd go it..

Just reading this (very interesting) thread has raised a question in my small mind.....
How come water in diesel is the enemy of diesel donks everywhere but water injection is in fact a genuine performance mod?

Because the size of the water droplets are minute and actually evaporate drawing out heat as it does so. The water changes from a liquid to a gas. Where as a gut full of water wont evaporate and wont compress so by by engine
Water has been injected into engines for decades ( not just a few either) as far as I know it started with aircraft

So what your saying is it takes 8 cylinders with a high capacity to sound like a motor with no cylinders ?? And anyway can't sound manlier than a bridge port or peripheral port!!
