    well all the stuff i did to get the mpg is in one of my post on here. i use distilled water and koh which adding koh makes amps in the gen, more koh more amps up to around 20 or so total using electrolysis. the scan gauge lets me check all my sens to see what they are running at and if they are doing what they are supposed to be, on top of that it let's me know my mpg as i drive which knowing that you can even increase your gas, kinda like a teacher showing you how to do it the right way i guess (poor example, but i'm tired). the gauge is worth it wether you have anything or not, knowing everything about your vehicle is priceless. the tire thing is pretty good also, but such a pain to experiment with. we've had the unit on the crv for about 3 months, then finally got our gauge, and after leaning it out we are about 60 avg. mpg. didn't lower the vx, probably not going to. gotta remember though about bigger tires slower speed, smaller tires faster speed, even though the speedometer will be off, in my opinion it takes more effort to move something bigger then something smaller, kinda like a underdrive pulley. we might buy a map sens enhancer so we can adjust rich to lean from inside the vehicle, makes it so much easier. i think i'm gonna pimp out the vx with 45" amish wheels lol.

    Mount a horse up to the front of the VX at that point and I can guarantee an even greater decrease in gas. The first ever "hay powered VX"!

    Only true if your VX really was an Amish tuner.

    Good luck with your science project! I hope you don't explode!

    I guess it's pretty obvious that I'm a skeptic when it comes to these hydrogen fuel enhancements. I just hope no one screws up their engines playing with explosive gasses. Insurance will most likely not cover a fire loss claim when they figure out that the owner installed a hydrogen generator on their engine.

    nothing wrong with being a skeptic that's what we are so i know where your coming from, but hey what the h#ll can write it off for taxes on the irs website, and on top of that you get your own firecracker maker. still waiting for the sens still in mo.. so far the engine in the old ladies car is fine, checked throttle body no signs of anything nice and shinny, plus her vehicle is the test vehicle, couldn't do that to my poor vx now until i know for sure. i'm pretty safe from blowing up the bubbler keeps everything safe if it backfires, and if not i believe our ins co covers just about everything, but it's fun filling bags up to show people what it does, boy is it loud.
