I picked up a set of FRPP intake gaskets M-9439-B302 and I noticed the water ports are restricted (as seen in the pic below). Do I need to cut them out to match my stock ports on the heads and intake? Why are they designed like that?

Yeah, trim them to match the rest of the "coolant port". Those are FEL-1250 intake gaskets. Stay inside the "blue lines"...good luck!
