Cruise control cylinder cut.
sorry for the alliteration...
my ideal idea is a 2 cylinder shut-off when cruise control is activated, coupled with a hydrogen generator to make up for lost power. any ideas? i understand that the hydrogen generators are not efficient, and i'm really not worried about the battery draining. the hydrogen would simply complement the combustion, and help prevent detonation from an extremely lean situation.
for this i understand i need proper tuning. i can handle that.
my questions basically lie with the wiring and set-up as a whole. i want it to be one fluid step. i.e.: setting my cruise control automatically cuts fuel to two cylinders, turns on the hydrogen generator, and corrects the voltage(s) sent to the ecu. i suppose this could even be done with water injection, but if hydrogen supplies extra power, i think that's the better route.
with this set-up, i believe i (and anyone else) can acheive 60+% highway mpg (or l/100km) improvements, even taking into account the extra load put on the engine. if modern cars only need in the realm of 50hp (or even less) to maintain highway speed, why are we even using all this extra power??
comments/ideas/opinions please.
