    has anyone tried the new hydrogen systems lately? I'm being told 22% fuel savings plus burning cleaner plus 100-150 hp??? Not gonna waste money on something that just doesn't seem real. I read the posts from a few years ago but I'm sure the systems have more technology with them.

    This screams BS, but I'll sit back and listen.

    The laws of physics have changed in the last few years?

    Didn't know snake oil was that good......

    There is no feasible way to gather, compress, inject, and burn hydrogen in any way that has positive net energy gains-unless you are burning seawater in a reactor core. That's simple physics... All energy distribution and storage has inefficiency and loss.

    Well, hydrogen is cleaner since the only byproduct is water, but beyond that........
