Cable or Hydraulic B18 Ls tranny

I am wondering which transmission would be better in a turbo'd b18a1, a b18a1 obd1 cable transmission or the latter b18b1 hydraulic transmission. I see it ran both way but it seems that a lot of cars are running the cable and I don't see why.

some people dont really feel like forking over the extra dough, to do a cable to hydro swap.

Hydrolic is just a nicer feel, it's user pref.
I did a b18a1 swap into a 5th gen 4dr and the guy used a cable clutch from the integra and hooked it upto his car...I would rather just get the kit from http://www.jdmshit.com and not bother.
