All the damper can do is reduce the pulsations that come from the fuel pump and it's really just another redundant, over-engineered system that the Z32 was burdened with. If pressure oscillation is your concern, I would think the pulsations that come from the injectors opening and closing would have a much more drastic effect. I can see the theory of using a damper, but the micro-effect of pressure oscillation is just too small of a variable to become an issue here.
