Default Water Injection?

What is water injection exactly and how does it really increase horsepower by adding water to an engine?

the only thing I can think that it applies to is a turbo with toys. Water is sprayed on the intercooler to cool the turbo.

Water does not increase HP .It helps control detonation . So that you can run more timing or compression to make more power.
