now lets look at boosting. you take the energy stored in gasoline convert it to mechanical energy. then the mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy, then to hho and try to raise the efficiency of a gasoline combustion, and convert back to mechanical energy. now lets not forget how crude is extracted from the ground refined and shipped across the world.
if we take a look at the laws of physics that govern us why would any one be at all interested in hho. "at every stage of energy conversion there is a net loss". i am not interested in tell the forum members here that boosting does not work. i just want to point out that boosting and 100% hho at the end of the day is all about energy conversion.what we are doing is not all that different.
