Pulse and Gliding will help boost mpg as well.

If you want to take it a step further, you can pulse and glide, but with the ENGINE OFF.

If you drive lots of highway, you can start with basic aero mods such front grill block, side mirror delete (at your own risk), wheel skirts, under belly tray.

I've tried building a Hydrogen Generator on my car ('94 Acura integra GSR), it didn't work. Essentially our modern ECU Controlled cars will detect something wrong with the air/fuel mixture, then it'll enrich the gas going in, thus defeating the whole purpose of the Hydrogen Generator. People have claimed that doing ECU tuning will get around this problem, however, I didn't want to invest that extra money.
