You will have increased the density by a factor of roughly 7 (I didn't bother to do the arithmetic). For practical purposes, you can compress to whatever extent your pump can provide and/or whatever pressure your tank can safely hold (with enough pressure and low enough temperature, you can also liquify the air). Why do you want to increase the density? Please be cautious -- high pressure can be extremely dangerous, just as high oxygen content can be.
