Do I need a Engine Management System?

Ill be installing these parts later this month--->

Injen Intake with lower and upper pipes, turbo xs FMIC, dc sports downpipe with cat delete, comp 272 cams, supertech dual valve spring kit, aem tru boost controller/guage, invidia o2 housing, aem oil pressure guage, aem wideband, greddy ti-c catback, arp head studs, ecu flash dyno tuning by Turbo Trix.

My question is will I need some sort of engine management system in my car, or will the factory ecu handle everything?

thanks guys

The flash will handle that fine. Half that stuff has nothing to do with the tuning of the car anyway.
