the biggest advantage of these gaskets are, you can re use them over and over and they don't stick to your motor and have to be scraped off. I have used them on almost all my builds ever since HONDATA come out with them and love'em.....

you would need a dyno to measure any gains, and they would by minimal at best....

I have used the Hondata one, it's a great investment in the long run.
