it's prolly a gimmick just like that tornado deal they have on the 1am infomercials "put the piece of aluminum with jagged fins into your intake piping and see dramatic mpg increase!!!"

Even if this was serious, you would see more car companies working on hydrogen fueled cars. At the moment, companies that are working on this are going through the experimental stages.

I would hold off on this for a while, maybe one day it will really be a good way to improve mpg, but I think it is too early to start looking into this.

lol...that thing looks like a load of crap. If you want to save gas and make the car a bit faster at the same time, get a SAFC and tune the car a bit leaner. The Lexus factory tune is quite rich.
