The C20B powered Bell LongRanger 206L is water methanol injection capable, used when power limited and gives a useful 50-80*C drop in TOT (IIRC) with corresponding increase in torque available.

Certainly reduced the need for Comp Washes when I flew one, but pure water/meth essential as already mentioned: not many around these days, though 👍
