    Raydav, great info from tech, bds chart says you need a final compession ratio of combined boost and traditional compression to be under 12.4 to run on gas, stay under its not worth the worry, water injection works well but I would be more apt to use it when needing performance, if just driving or cruising I would turn the boost down, you still should have plenty o'power without trying to squeeze out every drop.
