If it's actually adding oxygen (as ozone) from outside the intake then it's probably in the PPM range at best. Those big ones for the home only manage to generate in the PPB range.

Sounds like a gimmick to me...
okay, ive been reading up a little, and i think (maybe) i have the answer to this..
o2 pretty much stays as is, as its stable. o3, is rather unstable and its third likes to attach itself to other things as soon as it can. now, since the average auto only burns about 20% to 30% of the fuel you feed it (the rest goes out the exhaust tube), the third molcule attaches to the "extra" fuel molecules and allows it to burn (when normally it wouldnt.) so the net effect is increased burning effieiceincy(sp?).. i think..
chemistry was never my thing, so im not sure if this is correct, but this is what ive gathered from reading some very brainy type pdf papers ive found, mostly to do with pollution control.. the stuff gives me a headache..
i havent found anything that deals directly with ozone injection except what ive posted above. for some reason im very intrigued about this idea, i hope i can find more info that i can actually understand on the topic..
