Excess oxygen ?

To send only the hydrogen to the intake is not to say the O2 sensor needs no voltage output mods. We're talking different "Os", here. The sensor sees a change in oxygen level from any altered combustion...either higher or lower, thereby telling the ignition computer more ( or less) fuel needs to be pulsed by the injector signal to force this A/F ratio / signal voltage to return to its preset value.
You wouldn't like a flow of "clean" oxygen in your cockpit? 20% of the air in there is oxygen, anyway. This "boost" may bump the O2 level to 22%. 23%? Your heater or A/C ... if the windows are closed ... is going to mix this small amount to barely measurable levels. And you're constantly adding carbon dioxide ( some similar small amount) as you exhale, anyway. Is this bad? Nobody worries about exhaling this gas which doesn't support life. Nobody.
