Default Do i need a AC tension pulley to have ac?

I have a 91 civic HB si. Got full ac installed but no pulley. Can i just put a belt strait on there or will i need a pulley for my ac compressor to work properly. Any info on what belt size might fit without a tension pulley?

Reported, BTW.

A simple "yes" would have sufficed. As the belt ages, it will stretch. You will have to add belt tension periodically to keep the system working properly. You [i]need[/n] to have a tensioner pulley.
