It will not fix the IAC if that's what you are asking, and would likely make the idle worse...
The restriction mechanically limits the air-flow through a working IAC so as to make the idle drop faster between shifts--there are a number of "dashpot" settings in the tune that can do this as well--and better...
A better way to make this mod is the use a 1/2" copper pipe cap, drill a hole in it (start at 17/64"), and then stick it into the feed tube to the IAC. It does the same thing and is much easier to tinker with than the gasket.
