Yeah, for pure intercooling meth is preferable.
Water is not very good at reducing charge temps, it's 5-10C reduction if you're lucky, usually less.

For chargecooling in the cylinders (during the compression stroke) water is preferable. It does away with the need to run rich under boost.
This effect you can only see with a knock detector though, not intake temp gauge.
