You don't even need a new gasket.
Make sure you get the IAC plunger's o-ring when you pull it out (top of throttle body, driverside) and install it in the new one. My car had a bit of idle surging when I swapped to a ported one, traced it back to that o-ring being MIA.

when taking old one off you have to remove everything up to the tb, then unplug the sensors, and hoses to get at the 3 bolts to get it off. when intsalling the new tb, just tighten the bolts til they no longer turn, don't overtighten them or you could damage the intake.
