Short answer – yes.
Longer answer: You bought the filter because you love the bike, want to keep it for a long time, and therefore are looking to make it better by adding an aftermarket, performance air filter. The filter requires some sort of aftermarket device to ensure the bike runs properly afterward. That’s just the way it is. But this is no big deal because a quality aftermarket tuning device, set up properly, will also make the bike run even better than the filter alone could have done. You’ll increase power, you’ll increase efficiency, and with the increase efficiency will come longer engine life. All things that are important to you. So it’s a win-win teaming up the filter and an aftermarket tuning device.
