Well, let's see...
You're taking water from a reservior of some sort, expending energy to convert the water into a form that can be sucked into the engine, allowing this form to interact with the combustion process to lower in-cylinder temperatures and bring the process farther away from detonation, and expelling the water out the tailpipe when you're done.
Because of the beneficial effects of lowering in-cylinder temperatures and moving the combusion process away from detonation, you can then run a much leaner air/fuel mix than before, and you end up reducing throttling losses and allow your engine to push your car forward with better fuel economy than before.
How is this not water injection? Simply because you're electrolyzing the water?
Quit trying to stifle the debate, please. The idea must be able to stand on its own merits.
