I find one major problem with the entire "invention". It relies on the dissociation of water by exposing steam to high temperatures of 1800C to 2500C.
Since device seems to be a heat exchanger when reduced to it's most basic design, the heat simply comes from the exhaust gases from the engine. In gasoline & diesel engines, the typical exhaust temperature might reach just under 1000C under heavy load.
Given that fact, the device will not reach it's operating temperature to be of any benefit to the engine. The only thing it would produce would be steam.
Low temperature saturated steam can be injected into the cylinders to help gain a bit more HP but it can result in corrosion forming inside the engine aside from the possible water contamination of the oil in the crank case.Last edited by ghosthunter; March 1st, 2008 at 01:55 PM.

BTW, how the hell did they get the before and after HP figures?
They got a dyno in bacolod? for buses?

I have to see na talagang nag pro-produce itong "invention" na ito ng H2 and O2 gasses. Pag nakita ko ito, possible for me na nakakatulong sa efficiency ng makina.

I'm more positive with cooling your engine rather than exhaust, I am not so convinced cooling your exhaust will save 30-50% fuel. pang earth friendly lang siguro.
