You may find pressurizing your chassis would introduce more problems than
strength. The pressure you would need would be very very high to even be
measureable. If you used air, the oxidation process in your chassis would
be enhanced (not a good thing).
In other words, I am sure many other engineers will tell you the results
would be insignificant and probably not measureable....Besides why
introduce
more stress on the tubing by pressurizing it.
