Default Is a fuel regulator needed when adding I/E?

I heard that when adding an intake and exhaust, a new fuel regulator is reccommended so the fuel can adjust with the increased air flow. Is this true??

Getting an adjustable FPR doesn't hurt in the first place...

I remember ad's in magazines for FPR's were saying something like that. It wouldn't hurt, after tuning, but without more mods, you won't get much out of an FPR.
