I would go ahead and get the HW kit. I am pushing over 600 with the spray and so far I've seen zero issues with fuel supply. The 255 with HW kit is an excellent upgrade.

it is better to have the hotwire kit, or at least make new wiring, as the factory wiring and pins may cause future problems. insufficient wire per amperage, bad connection...etc
