I thought your water injection was plumbed in and working?
(Assuming your talking about your car)

Yes, if the chip has the feature enabled, (normally are)

a relay coil connected to ECU pin 12 and pin 20 will turn on when the pump is required to run.
(relay pins 85 and 86)

Use the relay contacts to switch the pump (relay pins 30 and 87) via a fuse

Will operate (if enabled in chip) usually around 3 to 4 psi below max boost when the charge temp rises above 38 to 40 degrees C.

If you have the water injection pump, pipes, tank and nozzle already - about Ł5 !!!

Otherwise, you will have to buy a kit like the aquamist basic kit - about an extra Ł300
and then you will still need a tank made up !!
