Not unless you plan on doing heads, cam, intake, or a poweradder.

You can get away without mass air until you get to changing cams. Heads and intakes work fine with speed density but cams can make things a bit tricky. I ran an F303 cam back in 95 with speed density and got it to work but sometimes it would stall at idle. Stock speed density cars were faster than the later mass air cars.
