There IS “excess” electrical energy, in nearly every vehicle.
I still think using electrolysis, to split H2O into hydrogen and oxygen, and then feeding those gases into the air intake, has some potential.
Of course, hauling around the extra water has to be taken into account -— but I would believe an invention in this area might have a chance.

It has a chance, if, and ONLY IF, you or someone really clever, can change, repeal or make an exception to the SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS....................

Alternators vary their magnetic load based on how much electricity is needed so no, there is not supposed to be a useful amount of wasted electricity. If you use more electricity, your mileage goes down.

This outfit is traded on the pink sheets. With fuel economy standards being raised to nearly impossible levels, their deal, if they actually have one, wont stay on the Pink Sheets for very long. If it’s a scam, they will languish there.

Tap water is mostly hydrogen that has already been burned... (it’s energy removed) Your going to remove it again?

No, there isn't. The maximum capacity of the generator requires an equal amount of energy via torque and speed. When less than maximium amps are drawn, less torque is required, less effort by the engine and less fuel is burned.
