The fact is that all the serious research in this area starts with a statement that it takes more energy to make the hydrogen than you get out of burning it. The real interesting stuff is what hydrogen does to the combustion process to make it more complete.

Based on what I have read so far, we have some serious science that says it is true under some really well defined, expensive laboratory conditions (custom built engines). Then some company mixes some of the truth with some of their greed and ends up with an over stated and over sold DIY kit. Good science, questionable execution.
