California emissions in New York?

California emissions in New York?
I bought my '05 F250 SD XLT Crew Cab 4X4 5.4/5R110W 3.73-open in the end of December. I took it in for some small fixes and got a build sheet on the truck. When I looked at the sheet, I saw that I have "California/Green State Req (DGAAC0)" emissions. I assume this means that the truck is equipped with the California emissions.
First, is this a correct assumption?
Then if so, am I losing a lot of power due to this emissions package?
I live in New York and have yearly emissions inspections but why California package?
Is it worth my while to replace the California package with the New York equipment?
Thanks!

The green state program whereby a few east coast states require CA standard vehicles to be sold there has been around for 10 years. It's nothing new.

Once the vehicle is in service then each state decides what they will do about in service inspection. Some states require yearly inspections and emission tests, some states don't inspect or test anything. Michigan is one of those that does not inspect any vehicles, nor emission test any vehicles.
