good luck finding a standard manifold that doesn't collapse after 12 months

Why? What happens to the manifold?:017:

never heard of the HHO cemical reaction that under pressure causes a reverse implosion?... kind of like a pulse jet engine....

not the kind of boost you want.....:paranoid:

Nope. Wouldn't a reverse implosion be an explosion? I can't go to youtube, network Nazi's won't let me. What are the details? e. g. @ what pressure, what materials are affected, HHO to O2 ratios...

my mate whos a chem eng told me all the bad things about it, something about hydrogen will just eat away at a normal manifold until its brittle as an eggshell...i think

yeah its recommended that you have stainless internals so there won't be rust from the water

Now that makes sense!:icon_super:

Give it up for the kid!!!!!:icon_kidra: :icon_kidra: :icon_kidra:

Anyone know if there are stainless valves available for the L28E?

yeah thats about it along with a stainless exhaust. When the hydrogen "Burns" it turn back to water vapor, and the water vapor comes out of the tailpipe. Its not completely necessary to change it over to stainless, but recommended if you're using the hydrogen booster for long periods of time.


For anyone building one, I suggest throwing a control switch in the interior, that way you have the power to turn it on and off.
