A fire extinguisher should be required by law in every car.

You should use a fuse and figure out that relays are your friend.

Water injection has it's uses. It's a great way to cool the intake charge in conditions when the intercooler is not doing it's job too well. Don't use too much water though or it will start costing you power by taking away space that could be occupied by oxygen otherwise.
It's not an octane booster or anti-detonant by any means, but it does a really good job at stabilising charge air temperatures if applied correctly.

That is not possible, no matter what, it brakes the laws of physics.
