Water injection is really a thing of the past the Jet Assisted Take Off {JATO} is a more widely used and a superior system today and its not a new technology, but it produces more thrust to weight capacity. Most aircraft that are still flying today have nothing but the brackets left intact for the water injection system. The advance's in engine technology have surpassed anything that would have been injected with water or water methanol mix's. I know of only one exception were it is used and it is there only for cooling purposes. Let me note that some restored x military aircraft would or may have it.
Note: Just pouring water in your carburetor on your car or truck is a bad idea water like hyd fluid cannot be compressed and can ruin your engine.
