So explain how H injection doesn't work again?

Don't be ignorant, it's in the freaking equations, specifically this one...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afterma...mic_Efficiency

the term g is 1.27 for gasoline and air ONLY and because it's the power of another term a very tiny change in it has a larger effect on the efficiency than you might think. As it happens, g is the ratio of SHC of the input to SHC of the output, for gasoline SHC is around 2.something, and output is 1.something, for Hydrogen the SHC figure is 7, yes s-e-v-e-n, 3 times that of gasoline. and the output is one. So even 1% hydrogen will show a change in efficiency.

All we have is some practical difficulty in implementation.

You don't get that equation do you.

Here's some reading material that is a better use of time (ho ho ho proponents always remind me of that line in The Rolling Stone's "19th Nervous Breakdown": "And your father's still perfecting ways of making sealing wax" LMAO):

Hydrogen may have a future in ICE efficiency... but it ain't gonna be by glomming it onto an existing ICE.

Here the California gummint is subsidizing/coordinating research into Hydrogen Enhanced Combustion Engines for power plants.

Note that the efficiency improvements come from the lean burn cycle and the downsizing; the hydrogen merely FACILITATES controllable lean burn:
