save your money, while this system will create hydrogen it makes such a small amount compared to the volume of air going into your engine it is worthless.

it also takes energy to separate oxygen and hydrogen out of water which has to then be produced by your alternator thus creating more drag in the system.

yup, don't you think you would hear a lot more about these things if you could really double your mpg?

google HHO and i am sure you will find all kinds of articles about these systems. Dont look at a companies marketing page though because of course they will tell you it will double your mpg. look for something like "how stuff works" or something more scientific like that

there is so much talk about this hho crap. There are online tutorials and whatnot. I am going to make this system this coming week and put it in my Explodition and see if it works. I will make videos of the project and do test runs with the thing. Not sure how safe it is but who cares right my explodition is a pile and I think it will be fine. I am curious to see if it makes a difference. if it does I will leave it in for a couple weeks to make sure it can withstand my abuse before letting something this frankenstein touch my max.
