Yep. Clean the surfaces and install the gaskets dry.

Use a razor blade to scrape off the old gaskets. Give the throttle body a good douche-wa-ze while it's out.

I used RTV (ultra copper) for the TB because when I put in a new gasket my Mileage went way down. I may have screwed the gasket up somehow, so I just went with the RTV. It is working great now.
