Is this the right gasket for IM?

Ok, I bought this Mangus heat barrier from ExtremePSI. I know I select the "EVO VIII and IX" although both Eclipse and EVO pic look the same. For some reason, when I tried to install it, I notice it's totally different from my gasket. I can't install this gasket My Evo has been sitting on 8 jacks for 2 weeks now. Finally got my tranny bolted back on Here are a few pic I took with my phone.




Can someone tell me if I'm right?

Hey man,
Hope all is well. As you may have figured out that is def not the correct gasket...were you looking to upgrade the gasket with one of those special ones that supposedly cool the intake charge? You probably wont have any issues simply reusing the factory gasket. Good luck

Yeah, I was looking for the gasket that supposedly cool the intake manifold. Anyway, I already bought it so hope they'll send me the right one in a couple of days.

That gasket looks to be for a 90-94 DSM
