I think both groups could learn a tremendous amount.  I have a modified Subaru, I didn't care much about saving fuel, and have an aftermarket piece of hardware that allows flashing of my cars computer to adjust the fuel trims permanently until flashed with different settings (computer is good for about 100,000 flashes)

Its called Cobb Accessport
Also honda has something like it, Hondata
Of course AEM makes a standalone computer, if you preferred limitless adjustements.
TurboXS has a product for several cars.

Search automotive performance, get something like this to reflash your car's computer (take it to a reputable performance tuner).  Get your car dyno tuned with HHO and I bet you will see more efficiency gain than just the EFIE.  The great part about the hardware I am using is that I can flash the computer in about 15 seconds, and be back to my factory gasoline only settings.

Interesting.

Like to find out a little more about this.

The car fuel computer adjusts the air fuel mix by the voltage sent to it from the O2 sensors - thus the need to change the voltage when HHO is used.

Does this system you use control the O2 sensor voltage output?

Did some Googling on the Accessport - Looks very interesting. Like to invite everyone to investigate and report your findings and thoughts back here.

I have copied and pasted a bit of info from the site below and placed the link at the bottom of the pic.


  Simple Installation

The AccessPORT is one of the easiest modifications you can make to your high performance vehicle. On a scale of one to four wrenches, the AccessPORT is half a wrench. Drawn in crayon. No tools are needed and no computer connection is required. Just plug the AccessPORT into the OBD-II port under the dashboard and follow the simple step-by-step on-screen instructions. In just a few minutes you will have a new performance map loaded on your ECU and you will be ready to experience the additional power and driveability of a proper tune for your modifications.
