I was looking at putting one on my 5.3lt V8 Yukon. It was just a thought. A guy at my work put one on his 6.0 Denali and claims to be getting 34mpg. I told him I would believe it when I see it. He is either embarrassed he paid that much money for nothing, or he really is getting better mpg...

Yeah, well would't use it on your primary or expensive vehicle. Get some POS civic and run several tests in a controlled environment and let us know if it works.

LOL, I think that is what I saw him wearing getting out of the parking lot at work today!

I think I may try it out on my father-in-law's Expedition for a week or so, since I can take it out and put it in another vehicle if it does indeed work. We'll see

I used o hve a 95 Integra that i put one on. I got me more pep and 3 MPG better, so that car and replaced it with my 98 ls1 m6, installed it on the car and got 2 mpg worse. bought o2 pipe extenders, and rear o2 sins, all it did was kill my mileage and set check engine lights. So, not good on a V8 that os obdII. may be good on a OBD1

Several folks I know claim to get about 35-40% better mpgs with properly sized kits that actually produce enough hydrogen. We played with an Ebay kit that didn't produce **** for hydrogen. We redid the plate configuration to produce a lot more but it kept blowing fuses after that.

Those folks you know are making those claims so they do not look like jackasses for buying those kits.
