Neither. Get a NRG damper for around $60. Does the exact same thing and comes in 4 different colors.

For what application? I bought mine from a seller in the sponsor marketplace for $55 shipped for my d16 in a 99 civic and everything bolted up right. It didn't come with very good instructions so I used the ingalls instructions and everything was exactly the same.

Yes. It eliminated 90% of my wheel hop. Now the tires only want to spin if rip through 1st and 2nd gear.

Inserts will do the same thing, but I have heard that they transfer a horrendous amount of noise to the interior. I only saw a tiny amount of extra interior noise after I installed the damper.
