Well, it certainly seems like the combustion of the HHO is going to be a wash, since you can't get more energy out of it than you put in to spilt the water in the first place. But I guess it seems conceivable to me (as a non-scientist) that the fact that the HHO would burn first and fastest as compared to the hydrocarbons, and that might change the characteristics of the flame front and the speed/effeciency that the fuel is consumed. I.e., that more fuel is combusted at peak compression.

Just thinking out loud,
Bill
