Care to explain why or are you just guessing?
Yes. It's pretty much the same technology as the hydrogen powered car, but in a retrofit kit. Although, the "build you own time machine" feel of that website isn't comforting.

I wished my local paper still allowed free access to their online edition, but there was an article about a local man who is doing something similar with his vehicles. His fuel mileage went from 24ish to well above 55mpg by using hydrogen injection. YouTube used to have some video's of running engines with water injected straight into the special manifolds.

The website is for the "manual" and says that the competitors are at $97 and they are offering theirs for 1/2 of that. If this is NEW and Revolutionary, how do they have competitors. If there are competitors, how am I hearing about this for the first time on a Mustang forum?
I think extracting gas from water was a Chem 101 project, but I don't believe the BTU extracted is sufficient to run your car as stated in the video. I remember having like 1/2 gallon of water and making a little flame burn for about 3 seconds in High School. They claim 4 oz. will get you 100 miles in an Escort wagon.
Also, water is already expensive and essential for human life. If you use that as a fuel, other issues arise. Plus using water sounds great, but the reality is oil companies will not let that happen. If this is the real deal, wait about 2 weeks and it will be ancient history. Someone will buy it up and hide it.

how about welding with water http://www.sra-solder.com/ww.htm?gcl...FQtvGgodG3wTow
hydrogen can be taken from water but the expense and speed and energy requirements make it difficult in a car

yeah. It would only work for spot welding body panels or patches for rust repair, if it makes a strong enough fusion. MIG welders are cheaper i think.
