I think the SAE tested hydrogen injection, with a slight improvement.

It works by helping support a leaner mixture.

The problem was that it was not considered cost effective for the added equipment and complexity. Supposedly an on board electralysis system was hard to meter, and rather finiky.

The improvement was no where near 2-3x that the HHO sites claim, something like 1-2% improvement.
