hydrogen has less BTU per a gallon then gasoline, so it isn't the engines fault for the 20% reduction in power, it is the fuel itself. I imagine not only will you get the 20% reduction in power, but the fuel milage is going to drop too when using hyrdogen. Basically the same affect you see in current flex-fuel systems when running gasoline vs E85.

"one gallon of gasoline yields 125,400 BTUs of energy while a gallon of liquid hydrogen yields only 34,643 BTUs or 27.6% of the energy in a gallon of gasoline."
