Ok, so if you have a 4.0 liter engine and you're running it at 1000 RPM's for a minute straight you suck in 2000 liters of fuel/air and 1.7 of those liters will be your "magic hydrogen juice". So .085 percent of what your engine sucks in is from the water bottle under the hood. Now this is just what happens at 1000 RPM's, so what happens at 2000? That's right the amount doubles but the hydrogen/oxygen mix you're feeding it stays the same if it's only generating 1.7LPM. The ONLY viable way I could see Hydrogen being used to add some type of efficiency to a vehicle would be if you had a generator installed to kick on and assist with braking, store the normally lost braking power which just wastes your pads, then use it to generate hydrogen upon acceleration. The only thing is that car companies do something like that already, but instead of hydrogen they use electric motors.
