That's correct, no need to add unless you want to.

I assume ur running this walbro on a T2? Like flaco said, it'd be nice, but honestly if ur not making over 300ish HP it's not needed. If you have S4 rails I would recommend replacing ur FPD though. Also, if you can do some research there are better pumps out there that are more dependable and aren't knock offs

I mean, for the amount of money ur already gonna spend on the walbro might as well get a Aeromotive stealth 340 or similar it's only like $50 more, and you don't have to worry about getting a knockoff. That walbro will poop itself once you go to 12-15 psi, assuming you have the injector to do so.
