Boost and n2o

I don't have an n2o kit, but this was just a curiosity.

If I added n2o to my car, wouldn't that also increase boost?

no, your inducing the exactly the same airflow, your just using a more oxygen rich mixture.

thats my understanding anyway.

that makes sense. so adding n2o wouldn't require any extra fuel?

of course you need extra fuel. power requires more fuel. your boost will also go up from creep.

nitrous oxide adds more oxygen, which requires more fuel.

my car is having the engine replaced. a tricycle could whoop its "azz". I only care if I can whoop my friend, who doesn't have her car either. Its supposed to be a 99 mustang gt, a/t, but I am sure the mods I have planned are adequate.
