I'm thinking about ditching the intercooler (MIGHT not have it anymore, long story, no biggie) and going with pre-turbo water/meth injection. What do ya guys think? less charge pipe fabbin, more octane, cooler charge air than with an a-a intercooler (I think), and cheap insurance
Please discuss.

you can use just the water but if anything goes wrong with the injection setup your motor will kill itself pretty quick
