Related question. Is there any advantage of having Cali over the Fed or vice versa?

Not really. Cali spec is a more stringent emissions system to comply with CA's tougher emission laws. There are some differences in ECU programming and number of precats/cats i beleive (could be wrong) but you aren't supposed to feel it.
