It's to cover up the hole when you remove your air control valve. If you still have a catalytic converter then you'll need it.

No gains, it is just an emissions thing.

If you fill in the holes completely and smooth them down you could get a little bit of a boost.

I meant to fill in the holes so that air travels ONLY to the intake ports, not to fill up wasted space.
