Also there are no fail safes that can be added using that method for the S/C.
The reliability depends on the install, the kit you choose, and how good/conservative the tuning is. If the car is tuned aggressively and its most timing advance relies only on the water-meth injection, then there will be reliability concern. With that being said, I'm using it in all of my maps to help the car further assure it of the best ignition (tuned based solely on the fuels themselves) it can achieve. There are also few friends of mine running it even along with their ethanol-mixed fuels. Overall, it's a good thing to have it as additional ensurance on a boosted car and I like mine. The only drawback is you have to shorten the interval of changing the engine oil a little bit.
