So technically it does boost the fuel's octane rating.

Here comes the word-police-
Methanol is alcohol. So saying "meth and alky" is kinda redundant.

There you go gsrboy.

Well, past jdm rs evos usually just came with the ic sprayer, and not the water injection from the factory. If it is after market, then I would believe it, but usually the factory does not install water injection or nos kits to lower intake temps. It's usually too risky to offer warranties with these cooling methods. If it was factory installed on the evo x rs, then congrats to mitsubishi for having the ***** to do so and still offering a factory warranty.
