I'm no physicist putty=tat but consider this. By definition of kinetic energy it will require the same amount of work to decellerate your car from 60-0 as it did to accellerate it from 0-60. Nearly all of the work to decellerate is performed, of course, by your brakes and the energy is given off (wasted) as heat. Now lets suppose we configure our HHO/alternator system to recover some of this (wasted energy). To do this I would attempt to have the alternator charge, idealy, during deceleration only and produce and inject HHO during the acceleration phase only. This would sort of work as a battery chargeing engine brake to in turn produce HHO for the engine. Im sure that there are much better ways of recovering the wasted energy but should'nt this work in theory?
