Would that be H2O? 
HHO generators were for producing hydrogen and entering it in to the fuel system.
One of the Jap car companies have been running a test on an island, where petrol/diesel motors were banned, with sea water and fresh water running hydrogen/electric motors.
I think they were due to enter the Jap market, in limited numbers, last year.
I did some research in to this in 2008. Plausable for petrol motors but no real data. Some massive claims made, made it look like a scam - check "Run your car on water" in a search engine. I'll check to see if any new data/proper testing has been done.
ETA - Toyota did the initial testing, promissing to have a production car last year.

As far as im aware its not a scam but not proven to what gains it gives. The concept as i took it for the DIY Route is not to replace using fuel but to reduce the fuel needed. This obviously then increases MPG.
It seems easy enough to make and setup just needs someone to pump in some cash to trying it. If I saw it working I would certainly try it.

"The engine of your car enjoys a lower temperature and so protects the environment from global warming....."
What a load of cr@p!
preventing global warming because your engine is runnng a couple of degrees cooler...get real!

Is this anything like the water injection that Porsche tried? - on the 959 I think.
More like hydrogen injection, allowing ingnition timing closer to TDC through a faster flame front and more complete fuel burn, meaning no combustion necessary on the compression stroke and all the combustion during the power stroke , supposedly a 15% efficiancy improvement.The water injection was to reduce intake air temps with water atomisation/vapour absorbing the heat out of the intake air. IIRC temps as low as 30*C below ambient were achieved by Porsche with water injection, but it was a lot of water, pumps, tank, injectors, to carry for a race distance, on top of the fuel, for a relatively small increase in grunt. Water and methanol injection was common in drag racing, but other methods (NOS) are more common now.
