I wish we could have this discussion in a more civil manner?

RustyLugNut has giving in detail how and why HHO can help in combustion. Especially in a lean burn engine!!!

Accelerating combustion in a lean burn is the answer to a more fuel efficient engine. F1 has proven this in their lean burn engine design this year!!!

As some of you know I'm in the process of using N2O for accelerating the flame front during lean burn on my engine at light load freeway speed. I have been doing ABA testing with this for the last 2 months and so far the gains are substantial. The Nitrous cost is not worth it, so far I have used (40+lbs@$6.00/lb) but lucky for me the cost is zero because of a generous research donation.

Now if HHO can give close, better or the same results that I'm seeing now then we have something, if the generation cost of HHO does not out weigh the fuel savings from the improved combustion.
