New Mods....do I need this FCD installed?

After reading a few posts I noticed a lot of people saying not to get a FCD. I have the HKS FCD, actually just bought it. Here's my mods I just got and I'm putting on:

Installed:
small 16g ported and clipped
Extremepsi UICP 1g bov
Weisco forged pistons
ported 2g manifold

Getting installed:
S-AFC I
Boost gauge, oil pressure gauge
FCD
Greddy Intake with 2gmas and apexi filter
550cc injectors
3" downpipe and thermal R & D exhaust
walbro 190 fuel pump

Will this all be enough if dyno tuned to not have fuel cut?

I know I need a pocket logger too.

Anything more I should have?

I just want to make sure I get this right and I"m not hurting my performance at all. Thanks for anyone who gives advice.

A front mount intercooler.

And you need to research fuel cut a bit more. And "if" the car is tuned with the 550's you will not have fuel cut at all. I have the pretty much the same and i run 20psi on pump and 26psi on race gas with no fuel cut issues.

Yes, although you are looking into dyno tuning with a WBO2, you really should have a logger just in case something changes/happens after the tuning.

A logger. Other than that, your mod list looks complete. The SMIC will be fine for now unless you are doing back to back 1st thru 4th gear pulls when it's 100 degrees out.

I'm running 19psi on the EVO III, pushing about 34lbs/min on the SMIC without any problems. I have made back to back pulls when it was about 85 degrees out and didn't see any knock.

As for the FCD, chuck it in the trash, or sell it to someone with a honduh.
