An engine works by mixing air and fuel and combusting right?
But the active part of the air is the oxygen, which is about 20% of air. So wouldn't pumping pure oxygen into an engine make it produce (theoretically) 5 times the power!? NOS is basically the same concept, but why not just pump pure oxygen? Is it that oxygen is too unstable?
Anyone got an idea?
