no, you can reuse the gaskets, make sure you get the TB gasket lined up right or you might get unwanted turbulence from pieces of the gasket hanging sticking out into the TB. the gasket inbetween the plenium and manifold should stay put on the manifold when you take the old one off, but make sure it stays flush and doesnt get pinched when installing the new one or you could run into problems
