I Installed the ZL1 pump and Fpcm and drove it for awhile before having the settings for the Adm fpcm changed in the tune. Had no problems.

But it can't hurt to have it should hold fuel pressure better

The fpcm is used to raise fuel pressure from the SS stock 50psi to the zl1 68 psi setting, bap will give you more flow but does nothing for increasing presser. The 5th gens don't use a mechanical regulator.they use pulsewith electronic fuel pressure regulator aka the fpcm

my understanding is pressure stay's the same as normal until 5500 rpm then pressure climbs with the adm mod & tune adjust
