I'm not sure I understand your question, but there shouldn't be any direct correlation between your O2 sensor and the amount of boost your tuebo produces...

Because when you take out your O2 sensor, the computer goes into "oh **** something's wrong" mode and dumps in too much fuel, which in your case is "just enough" fuel.
