it is based on the water injection systems of old jet aircraft, all I can tell you is new jets don't bother with it and I think they would if they could save fuel costs.

i don't remember my chemistry...but doesn't it take a lot of energy to break up those hydrogen bonds? can that little "reactor" do it?

it just takes electricty, but the energy given off by breaking just chemical bonds is very low, for this piece to do anything it'd have to be the size of your house

according to them: "ultra-sonic barometric pressure chamber giving off ultra-sonic frequencies" are used to split the water molecules to make hydrogen bubbles

whatever that means

it must work...it's ultrasonic

Actually, it takes energy to break the H2O bonds, it doesn't give it off. They are (theoretically) using the split-off hydrogen to supplement the gas in the combustion chamber. Burning the hydrogen as well as the gasoline.
