On-board hydrogen generators have no effect on fuel economy, so where you connect a hydrogen generator has no effect on fuel economy.
If you hook one up anywhere between the turbocharger outlet and the intake valves, (of a Diesel engine) the higher-than-atmospheric manifold pressure will cause fresh air to flow back into the hydrogen generator and no hydrogen will get into the engine. If ever you see one hooked up to the high-pressure side of the turbocharger, you can be absolutely certain that something else is responsible for improved fuel consumption claims.
