You dont get the same effect that you would on meth, however the difference is pretty small and denatured will still yeild huge gains.
I ran 50/50 distilled water/denatured alk in my alk cars (and will be doing the same again in this one once I hook it up) and it was awesome. 4+ degrees of timing, 12.5-1 a/f and 23lbs of boost on the stock STI turbo.
no knock, ever.
Dave,

I like the last 2 sentances of this post. This is pretty much the same tune setup I am running on my stock block EJ205. I have been through UTEC, (on UTEC I was running on 25+lbs of boost.) and now am on OpenECU. My compression is still 140+ across all cylinders,(FWIW), and just went over 50K miles (30,000+ of it on water/meth). Yes you must take some fuel out to make the power and have the AFR's you want, and the AFR's you need to make power, granted, the AFR's for meth at 100% mabye below 6:1, but if you can tune, or know someone who can tune, they or you can make it right in the end. All I can say is I am a true believer of the capabilities of Water/Meth with the right tuner, and owner/driver. I hope I don't alienate myself from my own/and Dave's thread,

(FlameSuit ON)
