Now the question remains,,,,,why does the Mods of an extra Battery and Charger makes it illegal? Keep in mind, 100 MPG.

Take care.
Most likely the modifications voids the car's epa compliance, the law was passed against cars that were modified the opposite way, or if state it could one of many different reasons.

I'll see if I can dig something up.

Easy enough, a MA law will prevent modifications if it makes the car nosier. So in this case it is sound abatement and not oil companies that is restricting the modifications.
