I'm not saying hho is completely devoid of benefits. The thing is, even if it does make the gasoline burn more efficiently, you're still pulling down 30 amps on your alternator, which is going to decrease your gas mileage, so at most, you may break even when using a smack's, or get maybe 1mpg better, and for a $150 investment, it's gonna take a while for it to pay for itself, if it does work. What I would like to see are tests under controlled conditions on a dyno, and have it run with the sensor mods alone, and then coupled with the hho, and note the difference. HHO could quite well be a good solution if you could generate it on the grid, store it safely, and use it in a vehicle, but generating it onboard really doesn't make much sense with all the energy conversions. By all means, try it yourself, I'm just saying, my money's better spent saving up for an EV conversion.
