Default Is K&N filter breather needed with whisper lid?

I have a 2000 Z28 and read that my car will need a filter breather with this lid? Is that right?

If your car still has the AIR system installed on it you will need a breather filter for the hose that used to plug into the stock lid. That hose supplies the AIR pump that puts air into your exhaust manifolds at start up.

Yeah you need one, get one from AZ and tie it off to keep it out of the way.
