Default DIY WI

Is it feasible to utilise a fuel injection inline pump - running at 5.2 - 5.9 Bar ( Bosch K-Jet system for example) for WI? They should be cheap as chips from a scrappy and if it wears out in 6-12 months (and it probably will) I can just get a new one. The control unit, water level sensing, boost switching and possible 2 stage jetting is easy for me to sort out (once I figure out the sizes of jets to use), but I'm wondering if the system would still work with a fuel pump? The system is for a 306 Turbo Diesel which will eventually be running about 18-20 PSI of boost and I'm looking to cobble up an equivalent to the 1S system, but with water level sensing and boost cutting (back to 14-15PSI) in the event of water outages.

PS. The system will be running 12.5% meth/water max (as recommended for diesel by Richard L), would the pump handle this?

Thanks

Andy
