I know that this thread has not been written in for a while, but I still wanted to post a comment.

I currently have a Hydrogen booster installed in my car and so far I have only seen a decrease in fuel economy. Yet, my friend who installed the exact same setup on his car saw about a 20-30% increase in mileage.

We both made it with our own plans so there is nothing copied off of the internet. Our plan was to separate the Hydrogen from the Oxygen so that we did not have to implement any electronics because of the added oxygen. It worked for him, not for me.

I am not stopping there though. I am currently a senior in Automotive Engineering and I plan on doing some proper testing to see if it is possible to get the desired increase in fuel economy. There have been so many questions out there that remain to be unanswered. I might possibly use this as an independent study so that I can spend more time on it and maybe get funding for my research.

The ultimate question: Does it work, or does it not.
