So let's say you ran on 1 atm of pressure of PURE NOSS!!!!Z!!11! (/s). In effect, since each mole of N20 dissociates into half a mole of 02, that would equate to 50% atm partial pressure of 02.
So depending on your mixture of air vs N20 it would be somewhere between 20 and 50% effective 02.
edit (because math is fun!!!): 100% N2O would be 7.35 PSI of O2. To get that much with FI, given 20% of O2 in air you would need 2.5 atm worth of air, so an extra 1.5 atm of boost, which equals 22 PSI of boost!!!! just from the oxygen alone!

Just for clarification, your edit when you say 100%. Does that mean your math is for 100% nitrous in the cylinder? This just reads like your saying running nitrous is the same as running 22psi, don't want people to get the wrong idea.
I'm pro nitrous, ever since 2001 there has been a severe misunderstanding out there,
and yes my car is boosted as well.
