Yes but it has 2 holes less!
Also is 1.2 mm instead of 0.8mm!
These are the only two differences.

The Evo IX head gasket is thicker? I wonder if the VIII gasket could be used safely instead to give a slight bump in compression?

So can you use the IX gasket on the VIII or not? I have heard it was fine to do so....
