Yes, injecting H2 and O2 can have benefits. BUT, generating the gasses on the fly will result in a loss of power - you can't produce enough gas fast enough without large amount of power.
Google is your friend.
No, it's not the first system ever designed, HOWEVER it is one that has received good reviews and proven performance. The current draw is 18A (if you took the time to look thru his album) and the system seems viable. Whether you want to compare it to an electric car that can only drive 200km is a whole different issue. This is experimental technology that MAY have applications in the near future.

No need to be a negative Nancy!....
