If this guy was trying to prove something, he did a terrible job! His "Math" only shows how much fuel he is saving, but fails to actually show some before and after comparison.

All he did was pressurize the fuel tank. He did not add "pressurized air dissolved in fuel".

hilarious.

let's use engine-derived energy to(attempt to) oxygenate fuel, that way you need to inject a larger amount of it to keep a target air/fuel ratio.

...sounds like people trying to make "cleaner" air by rebreathing their "pharts" (humor intended).

1. Tells you to google the science behind this system
2. No scientific testing or data
3. A video that shows a few minutes of driving, and then a shot of the trip computer indicated MPG (could have been manipulated)

There isn't much going for this one.
