Looks similar to the Hondata gasket to me. Can't really hurt.

Have these types of gaskets been proven to make power? All i hear is that people can put their nuts on their intake manifold becuase of it being cooler

if you have money, get the spacer. It will help, not a big difference but there is no reason NOT to get one. The IM will be cooler, which means the air will also be cooler until it gets into the head. plus i think its reuseable unlike paper gaskets
