Valve in heater hose pipes

Going to be be fitting m50 soon and was just wonder what this part does and if its needed when doing the conversion. It's like a valve/thermostat in one of the m50 coolant pipes going to the heater matrix http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii152/Tomae86/77A6B874-A15F-4F6E-8B26-41710B51AE96-8268-0000...

My e30 at teeseide drift day
