It still has the effect of cooling the intake air charge. You start cooler so your compressed charge is cooler. Here's an interesting article on a homemade water injection system.

very most interesting! Basically on our engines that's be using the vacuum line from the PCV system or brake booster, but the only problem I can think off, at full throttle, you don't have much of a vacuum, so there won't be so much flow through the tube and the water injection would be greatly reduced when you would actually want it most... So really I think you'd want to have a small aquarium pump or something to ensure a steady flow...
