When you say hydrogen, do you mean LPG? If so, I have been looking into fitting this on my S3 109 2.25 petrol. Pro's I have found so far are:
cheaper fuel (41p/litre in UK.)
ability to retain petrol (hence increased range / flexibility.)
vastly reduced emissions.

Con's include:
marginally less power (hopefully not too noticeable.)
lack of petrol stations in UK who sell gas (although Shell have apparently committed to providing it in a reasonable number of their staions but I can't remember the exact number.)
you won't be let on the channel tunnel with a vehicle that only has gas power and no means of shutting it off.
finding somewhere to mount the tank.

There was an article in Land Rover Owner a few months back which went into some detail.

If you don't mean LPG and do mean hydrogen, can you send me some info if/when you find it out?

Cheers,
Jason.
