It was my understanding that much of the benefit of
water injection comes from vaporization inside the
combustion chamber increasing pressure inside the
combustion chamber, while also slowing combustion
slightly to help prevent detonation.  This results in
a generally greater efficiency under some conditions.

Am I missing something?
