Water injection has been around for a LONG time.   Even "Mother Earth" magazine 
covers it:

The Aeronautics and Astronautics curriculum emphasizes the disciplines of 
aerodynamics, aerospace systems, astrodynamics and space applications, 
propulsion, structures and materials, dynamics and control, and further 
provides courses that integrate these disciplines into the design of flight 
vehicles to perform the required mission.

Happy reading!

(I personnaly would be worried about higher chances of carb icing amongst 
having to carry extra weight in the plane)

Subject: KRnet> water injection

I've read about slowly trickling water down into the throat of a top-mounted 
carb on a running gasoline engine to decarbonize the piston tops and chambers, 
although I've never tried it myself.  I suppose it's the rapid expansion of the 
liquid water to gaseous phase that blows off the crud.
