I've seen some BMW guys doing it to keep their engines carbon free. I've seen turbo guys use it to keep their engine carbon free and seen it used as a method of cooling the intake charge.

I've never heard of them adding power though. Only thing it will help is allowing the engine to produce the same amount of power it did before.

I might be missing something but based on my knowledge of the basics of engine performance it doesn't make sense on how it can add power.
