Mark, I can find no difference in the parts manual for any of the motor
components. I am about 99% sure that the tune is now the same for all
models (CA included). The big difference is caused by the catalytic brick
in the collector portion of the header. To get the same performance as a 49
state model, you would need to replace the header (or cut it open, remove
the cat and weld it back up). From the dyno that I have seen, the CA models
run 6-8 hp behind the 49 state models.
