If the word power adder was used so loosly as to heads and cam, does a air filter or race gas warrent it to be a power adder? The word power adder to any car enthusiast means-boost or nitrous. Why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway?? Just because nitrous is not of your interest, doesnt make it illegal, or unfair. And about having a lisence to have nitrous, well your not supposed to take off the cats on your car either...but most of us do it!!

Naaw, I wouldn't complain. Personally I would consider my competitor's win a cheezy victory. Then, I'd just challenge him to a couple more runs til his bottle's empty
at which time he'd refuse to run any more when the playing field's evened up. Which I suppose goes back to my original point. The laughing gas is a shallow way to try to beat a competitor (my minority opinion). How many guys would continue running someone knowing their bottle would be empty in one more run? Or, how many guys would run after their bottle's completely used up?.... Here, let me answer that.....none.
As far as the legality/illegality of the CATCON you're right on the $, it's illegal to tamper with it. It's just that it was mentioned earlier about whether something's legal and fair is all.
Perhaps I'm out of the loop when it comes to hi-po mod vernacular. I find it hard to believe that groups of people are using the word "power adder" for only 3 items that generate more power. I personally won't be using that term in such a narrow sense. To me, a power adder is just what it says it is, a power adder, and that can be a myriad of things. One says to-mato, the other says tom-ato.
Heck, I never claimed since NOS wasn't my thing it was illegal. I said that in this state it's illegal to transport compressed gas (such as NOS) without a license. Just as is tampering with the emission control system. We agree!
