If you don't have one now and it's running good, IMO you don't need it but I really can't say for sure.

It's just a damper so the fuel system doesn't see all the pressure pulses that are sent by the fuel pump like on a non-cali (Fed truck). The Fed truck fuel pressure is all but impossible to measure. The needle bounces fom 40-90 on my truck. I assume the cali trucks don't have the big swing in fuel pressure.
