Default Water Injection

Any of you guys have any experience or thought with this? My friend was talking about it. Its water/methnol injection, so I figured I'd ask.

yeah i heard about water injection, in fact i know about water injection, more about alochol mix though, my friend mike, owner of second gen rx-7, has a t04e pushing about 22 Psi through 720/1600cc injectors, and he used water injection from ERL, aquamist. He said that he couldn't run that much psi on the street until he got the injection kit. Right now, he sold that kit and made his own, water/methonal. He tune his 7 with very little retard as little as 2-3 degrees when boosting and use only 91 octane. Not bad for a 11 sec street car too. the only problem is getting it to jet correctly, if it jets alot of water/methonal it will cause your car to be sluggish (rich), he also mention that since rotaries don't hydrolock, he doesn't really care about how much he jet in. So I think for honda's ERL systems is the best because you can actually controll the amount of flow you want to go through.

i was pushing 12psi of nonintercooled boost and KR was killing my timing, so i decided to make my own water/alcohol injection, and ever since im in love with it... 12psi ... 18.5 timing...
