I think water injection would be useful on an undersized-for-the job engine, ie putting a 2L engine into a Suburban with about 20 psi boost. It also would almost be a necessity if pushing a diesel to redline is a common occurance; water injection would bring down the exhaust gas temps very nicely.
But for cruising down the interstate, I kinda doubt it. But I do wonder what the effect having extra water vapor in the exhaust would be.
