New exhaust on a Kawasaki Z1000 2007 model

I have a Kawasaki Z1000 2007 model. I’ve just bought a Campbell Sidewinder custom exhaust to my bike. On the manufacture webpage it says:
“Please note! The standard silencers are fitted with an exup valve. After disconnection
and removal it is advisable to visit your local dyno centre to check the fuel injection mapping. “
(New Page 1)
I’ve checked with my local Kawasaki dealer and they say I don’t neew to do anything, but others claim I have to buy a Power Commander and reprogram the fuel injection.
Is this really necessary?
Any suggestions?

From:

Any adjustments you make to the airflow through the motor will effect the mixture, so you will need to adjust the map for optimum performance. Typically you wont notice a difference, but a bad mix can do anything from fouling plugs to burning valves. If you want to do it right, get the PC, but the bike will still run without it.
