On the manual tranny cars... yes it is. The car feels totally different with the extra revs.

I do not have it in my car, but have ridden in one that does. It is a pretty much night and day difference.

If your only planning on doing an I/H/E than I would say just get a reflash. If you think you might do cams or a head swap etc, get Kpro. With Kpro you can have the ecu tuned to whatever you end up doing t the car.
