The reduction in temperature is only part of the equation. Water/Alky injection also serves to raise the effective octane rating of the combustion mixture, which results in the greatest benefit with regards to detonation, imo.

This kid at my school has a WRX and is running water/alky... It lowered his intake temperatures 48-55 degrees (in the summer).
