Default Re: What does everything think about the gas/h20 mix for big fuel efficiency..?

Old thread, but I'm bumping to see if anyone ended up trying this out on their rig.

My dad is adding an HHO system to his Chevy diesel pickup this weekend. 2 close friends of his have it on their trucks and have seen about an 60-90% increase in mpg. A mechanic friend is doing the install.

I'm keeping an eye on it to see if it really works or not. It could get my mileage up to the double digits. My main concern would be if it voided warranty, tho.

Hey guys I'm trying it also,I'm in the process of building the hydrolyzer cell out of poloycarbonate plastic, what the hell it only cost me $200 in the correct materials, so if it Doesnt work it sure wouldnt be the first $200 I've wasted. What can it hurt......it would be worth an extra 3 miles to a gallon for me. That would also mean something musta worked.....

I really do wish one of our forum Buds would build and give us updates on it. I have been reading stuff everywhere on this. I think you have to be careful about pushing your engine to lean. You would be adding more air so new tuning may be needed to increase fuel. It may just take larger injectors and maybe cooler plugs at first for caution.

It has me curious to see what it does. I'm thinking you should have wide band air/fuel ratio gauge from the start. I run a supercharger so I'm thinking after you test it and keep us up to date, I'm rattling around in my head about gaining more power without going up on boost more than it is. Then there is the thought of doubling boost and then this kit creating what would I guess boost more without having to change harmonic balancer since I already have as small a SC pulley as I really want to go.

In theory it sounds as it should work which if it does a person could use it for different reasons and in different ways. I could have a tune setup just for MPG running the kit getting even a few MPG's would be interesting. In my book it just adds another tool to create more versatility in my H2.

I am researching CNG setup on the H2 but, I do not like the added weight CNG adds to rig.

Well go for it and let us know what happens and if no one else is interested PM me with test data I would like intense and lot's of data. I normally like to try allot of new stuff but, health situation is slowing me down yet expect to have major problems taken care of by Jan. 1 2009.

We are going to be at SEMA 7 days. I plan to look and see if there are any vendors there demonstrating this technology.

Good Luck Hope it Works,

TAZ

Here is some interesting reading.

This company is involved in the development of this car. 450HP Twin Turbo. 40 mpg estimated. Not clear whether this is with or without the optional twin turbos.
