Nope!.... i kinda ended up just giving up on it lately. When i have extra time i may sit down and play around some more.
I did it on my boss's 3.0 2005. And it showed up and worked. (fl_bix) he doesnt have nav.

back to hydrogen, so he still uses regualar gas? just hydrogen gets injected mixed in with the gas?

Meh. Needs a bigger screen. He should have just mounted a 40+ inch flat panel on top of the dash, and then used some forward-facing cameras so he could use picture-in-picture or split screen to see what's ahead of him when he's driving. Maybe one of those new curved LED TVs.

I'll bite. I just want to know how he gets 16 city / 22 highway with his 4.8is on straight gas pre HHO.

Props to him how clean his install is on the electronics.

I am curious how much the ~ 250watts (1/3rd of a horse power pre losses) his electrolysis creates in combustible BTU.

Maybe a tune-up is due?

How are you even comparing 70% highway driving with driving in NYC. When you drive around here you might understand. And my car is more tuned than yours, trust me on this.

Nobody is arguing on the tuned part.I understand the horrible traffic in NYC but still 11mpg is really low ...wasn't trying to be a smart Alec just pure curiosity

I got 10.7 L/100km or 22 MPG on my recent roadtrip from Edmonton, AB to Golden BC in my 4.8is (~600km)....

Hydrogen is a crock of shit unless you can create it using a catalyst which is more expensive than the extra money you would spend on gas.

+1 for 22mpg. I did 1200miles round trip last fall and averaged the same!
