With that being said, I would recommend buying one, and it wouldn't surprise me if LJ includes it in future kits. Just remember that you have to run a modified tune specificially for the new MAP sensor so it isn't just a bolt on affair.

Oh yeah definitely, I didn't mean to say it is absolutely necessary or that the kit FBM sells is incomplete.
What boggles my mind is that its a simple ~$100 add to the kit, and
with it they would be able to provide overboost protection very easily thus giving their awesome product a nice failsafe.
GOOD CALL on it not being a simple bolt on mod as the tune does need to be recalibrated for the new MAP sensor.
