I'm don't remember if my UPR X pipe came with that but I know I didn't use it. The only thing I can think of is if you still have stock exhaust manifolds you may have to use it as more of a flanget on the drivers side to make sure it seals. If I'm wrong someone can shoot me later.

X2, I got my old UPR x pipe used and I didn't have that and it leaked like a bitch out the driver side header.

yes, you need it for the drivers side with UPR mid-pipes or you can change the studs to the ones without the shoulder (PITA)
