There's a hint of something about using "unused" electricity from the alternator for "on demand" H/O2 supply. If there is electrical current being created using energy fromt he motor that not being turned in to anything but heat, then theoretically there could be a gain sort of like regenerative braking charges hybrid batteries. But I can't conceive of any possibility of 75-125% gains in fuel efficiency. Maybe like 5%.
