not really. this has beeen discussed before, but I'll go through it again.
the compound of nitrogen and oxygen is held together by bonds. when exposed to enough energy (heat) these bonds can be weakened and broken, like the heat in the engine of a car.
when the bonds are broken, you get oxygen and nitrogen released.
the nitrogen has no effect, but the oxygen is what allows the fuel to burn, so you're getting more oxygen in the engine, thus (if tuned correctly) you can put more fuel in there to combust.
