Make sure you grab an oil sample and send it in for analysis at Blackstone Labs. It costs about $23 and will help determine the exact cause of the issue. I just did it with the oil from my spun rod bearing (confirmed given metal content in oil-I think, LOL).
I attached mine for people to take a look at.

I think there is a small misconception of how the water injection system actually works. The pumps operate at 160psi, and are spraying through tiny nozzles (1mm or less). What you basically end up with when these things spray is a mist, not so much a stream or jet of water. It atomizes with the air almost instantly, so really it is spread throughout the cylinders as effectively as the air itself.
Food for thought and why I prefer not to run tons and tons of the stuff. It DOES help and it was providing fueling for this car. Fingers crossed that a tear-down provides some clues.

I am not feeling warm and fuzzy with BBI. I sent my friend over there with his F360 and they totally messed it up. They did not even service the car, they sent it to another shop for all of the work (which was news to the owner). $8,000 later and it still has the check engine light on and they did nothing to rectify it.
