Some folks are using propane injection instead of water injection. A small amount is metered into the intake, and as it changes from liquid to gas, it provides some intake cooling and a very slight octane increase. It's a method of supressing knock so that more spark advance can be run, producing more output.

Should work on any internal-combustion engine, turbo'd or not. Your increases are according to how much more "tuning" you can get the engine to run happily with.
