Default Re: water powered cars?

One of the articles said that the person was using deuterium to get more power out of the system than being put into it.
I wish someone with some genuine knowledge of the subject would not just say because of law xx or whatnot its impossible, and instead prove it is not possible using math and emperical data.
For example,
how much energy does it cost to convert the water into the gases?
how much energy does burning said water create?
how efficient is the conversion of that buring gas into mechanical energy?

Oh, and i was reading some about the hydrogen booster thing that you can add to your car - NASA did a study and found that hydrogen added to gasoline made the engine run cleaner as well as more efficiently so long as the equivalence ratio was below .75 also only works with certain kinds of engines; they were using a different method of producing the hydrogen however; instead they had methanol around the exhaust pipe for the heat produced to catalyse the creation of the gas.
