i dont know but the end of the installation process reads:


Safety issues are addressed thoroughly in the manual and must be used as pre-caution. MimoUSA or the Manufacturer for Hydrogen Booster will not take any responsibility for the following:

Damage to engine from improper gas hose placement and overfilling the electrolyzer.
Fire damage cause by a fuel leak from loose connections and clamps.
Skin burns caused by handling the electrolyte and not rinsing it off.
Blindness caused by spilling electrolyte in you eyes and not washing it out.
Choking caused by breathing electrolyte fumes during mixing.


sounds dangerous

"Hydrogen Fuel Cell, the most cleanest emissions fuel that can power a vehicle better then regular gasoline, while also achieving higher engine gas mileage, engine horsepower, etc. You probably haven't heard much about it because the government doesn't want you to know. Since 1990, the idea was crushed over and over again by our Government and giant Oil Companies. More details about our government" (http://www.mimousa.com/hydrogen/gas-prices.asp)

But it's the "most cleanest" guys!! duh!
LOL at the more details about our government part too!

well there is a guy who uses hydrogen injection in biodiesel using diesel motors to get nice hp numbers, ridiculous torque, and great gas mileage. i think there was a post about it here, not sure, too lazy to look for it.

I just sent the seller a message:

Dear l_lorete,
What engines will the Hydrogen Booster work on? I drive a 1998 240SX and the previous owner put the Japanese SR25ETT engine in it. I only get 15 city/18 highway. Have you tested the product on it? My parents hate my car since it is not fuel efficient like their Honda's. However, this product may change the way they feel about my car! The Tornado Fuel Saver didn't work on my car, but I have a good feeling about this product. Let me know. Thank you.
-me

I'm anxious to hear back from him. :keke:

looks like i can put that kit together with some junk in my garage and a cd rom disk

but honestly still pretty interesting

lol. interesting. It looks like the electronic control circuit bypasses the O2 sensor and makes the ECU lean out the fuel mixture big time.... sure that'll get you better gas milage by itself w/o any kind of crazy hydrogen system... but isn't that always a good way to make your motor go boom? :p

All these alternate fuels are a great idea for a greener environment. But seriously, we drive 240s...that are at least 10 years old. 240s and fuel economy do not go hand in hand.

You want 40+ mpgs? Get a Yaris.

sheesh...what a waste of eBay fees.....

for $1200 (price of car included) im closing in on 50 mpg...someone ask him if it can piggy-back with their flux capacitor

Beebo
02-13-2008, 09:29 AM
i emailed him and asked him if i have to remove my flux capacitor in order to install this kit on my 93 240... he hasnt let me know. btw did anyone see his trunk in the video?

edit**holy crap i asked him last night!^^^^

that ebay item is totally bogus. But they do sell hydrogen kits that work. I have some experience with them and you do get alot better mpg. Im just saving up some cash so i can afford mine.

If you disconnect the electronic transducer and rotate the bungee cord to the left while using your needle nose pliers to where it just touches the rom tune zip tie transformer, you can get an extra 82 MPG. Now make sure you fill up the canister and cover it with the rubber electrode cover as to not short out the 15 wires we didn't use electrical tape on. :wtf:

Now I'm all about getting better fuel economy and a greener planet but damn, that just looked crazy. I've got foil on my head right now but I'm not that wacko to try that on public streets. Good lord. I love the video. +1 for psycho backyard rocket sci-entry. +1 for trunk filled with ummm stuff.. lol

Auctions like this are the reason people think that the whole Hydrogen/Gasoline hybrid idea is a big sham. I could easily put that kit together for less than $100.

NEG REP POSTED on ebay 240sx hydrogen... 02-13-2008 08:22 AM did you even read the thread?

Okay whoever neg repped me is a fuckin moron. For starters, this is a fucking chat forum. Last time I checked opinions were like assholes....everybody has them.

1. YES I read the fucking thread, watched the damn video, checked the links.
2. I'm fully aware this is a joke thread.
3. I made a comment about alternate fuels being a good idea, just not for 240s.
4. You are a FUCKING DOUCHE BAG for posting a neg remark when you obviously can't understand a simple fucking 2 sentence reply to a thread. Apparently my ebay remark wasn't to your LOL standards?
5. Next time leave your name so people can respond to you in kind.

So what, I guess I'm just supposed to follow all you dumb fucks on here that think it's so "uber cool" to just leave a witty comment that's just so "LOL" and hope I get funny posi rep remarks. That'll make me Zilvia cool right?

God this fucking forum has been taken over by the illiterate, ignorant youth of America. Now I know why I was a premie and never visited the chat forum.

And no this is not me being pissed, hurt feelings, emo, etc. Just making a simple e-observation. And I'm sure I've prolly helped you in the past with a tech problem so it's nice to see you returning the favor.

02-13-2008, 11:44 AM
^^^ i hope your not directing those comments towards me. just to clarify, i dont even understand the rep system and i got neg rep form somebody saying "thanks for letting me neg rep you". if it helps... +beebo rep for you if that will make you smile :)

It's not the actual repping points that bother me. It's the idiots that think they SHOULD be repping at all for a chat thread.

NEWSFLASH: IT'S A FUCKING CHAT THREAD WITH NO POINT OTHER THAN TO TALK ABOUT REDUNDANT SHIT.

A tip: Don't waste your time repping people for dumb posts when there's plenty of "For Sale" and "Tech" posters that could use the rep help when they contribute.

We talking about what scam it is, not about environmental and fuel economy shit.

Take a Pill and calm down. Bitching about rep will just get you more negative rep

Take a Pill and Get a Clue.

It's not like environmental and fuel economy are not even related to the opening subject.

I'm fully aware of the scam factor, I just simply didn't choose to comment on that aspect of this thread. That's a Zilvia crime now? Good to know. I'll get back in line, sorry for thinking outside the box.

Sheesh.

Dear jasondubyah,

Your Question about the hydrogen booster:
QUESTION:
i have an 89 model 240sx and that thing sucks gas like no other. i was wondering since its a single cam engine and not the dual cam, do i need to remove the flux capacitor or will this kit bolt right up? thanks, jason
ANSWER:
"Yes, you would have to remove the flux capacitor. It fits any engine, its pretty much universal." Thank you for your time.

The bidding has ended but if you want me to relist it let me know.
