    Tushar’s Hybrid Project

    Current Setup:

    1) Installed in Honda Accord 1995 LX (Current Miles 163,000)

    2) One booster with “+ N N - -N N +” with SS wall plates and 1/16 gap using nylon

    3) Gas output > 0.75 LPM (but < 1 LPM) (is this enough?)

    (I Checked for leaks with soap water and fixed it)

    4) 15 amp starting current going up to 30 amp after 10-15 minutes of driving

    5) Gas out to location close to filter unlike close to Manifold or PCV
    valve (I am still contemplating) about using PCV Hose; not sure…

    6) MPG before Install was 28 approx.

    Results:

    1) Percentage gain ? (none so far)

    2) MPG (After Install)? (none so far)

    Next Steps:
    1) Remove current Gas Out that is close to Air filter and change
    location close to Intake Manifold.

    2) Install Anti Fouling Spacer (O2 Extender) on the Catalytic Converter;
    There are two O2 Sensors; one in the front by engine and one in the
    catalytic Converter.

    3) Seal plate edges with Rubber Splice Tape from home depot to reduce current leaks

    4) Add cooling thru electrolyte circulation (taking advantage of thermal-pressure)

    Questions:
    1) Is my Gas output > 0.75 LPM (but < 1 LPM) enough?

    2) Should I install O2 Extender (on first O2 Sensor i.e. close to
    engine)

    3) Should I install EFIE or MAF enhancer


    Thanks for your help in Advance.

    Only the front 02 sensor controls fuel. The one after the cat just compares signels to check cat effeciency. Sealing your cell for current leakage will help HHO output greatly. Your car will have either a MAP or a MAF sensor. Either one modifies the same way. Just splice into the wire and add a 40 to 50k ohm pentiometer in line to lower the voltage goung to the ECM. Be very careful. If you run your engine too lean you WILL BURN HOLES IN THE PISTON'S.

    extended gas output upto intake manifold now

    I have extended gas output upto intake manifold now; will post results in few days. please check out pics here;

    After extending gas out line close to intake, my car is kind of running heavy; I feel I am driving on lower gear... I feel llike it is straining it self....I do not know why. Any idea, what it would do that?please check out these pics. http://picasaweb.google.com/tbhavsar...ctionImproved#

    you need to connect or t-in to the vacuum line right after the map sensor. in the picture #6 in the upper right corner at the end of the air tube is the intake on top of the intake is the map sensor just right of it looks like there is a vacuum line, t into it and you'll definitely notice a difference. I found that before the throttle butterfly you don't get the vacuum that it seems you needs. IMHO

    its just my opinion but I have tried the way you are hooking it up.

    whats ironic is I put the air line right exactly where you did. I also tried right up next to the mouth of intake with the same results

    Good luck Scott

    I had to use a map enhancer to achieve gains on my 2002 Honda Accord LX
    was 28 before now averages 40+ mpg. and I put the gas out right after the map sensor unit on the intake.

    Congrats!

    Since you only got results after installing the MAP enhancer how do you know that the booster made any difference? What would happen if you removed your gas generator?

    with booster and no map enhancer my mileage went to shit below 28 mpg (wife drives 100 miles every day to work and back, I'm retired). It probably would be better mileage with just the enhancer,( I didn't notice much) but you run the risk of burning valves. and you don't get the performance increase that you do with the hho additive to gas. When I first installed the system and was working out the bugs (like where to put the gas-in line). it definitely made a difference when I connected to the vacuum compared to the air filter side of the intake (no vacuum). so yes the hho does make a difference beyond just the enhancer IMHO.

    just a side note my accord has over 169,000 miles. The system has saved us hundreds of $ a month since installing the hho system. (about 3 months)
