Default header...d16y8 or jdm d15b

so, im going to buy a jdm d15b when i get my tax return check, but the other day, i was at the junkyard just lookin around, and i came across a d16y8 2 piece 4-2-1 header. Which header would be better? i would assume the y8 because its made for a 1.6 opposed to a 1.5. the junk yard wanted $75 for the y8 header... is that a good deal? or should i just save my money and get the dc sports 4-1 header?

Y8 woulda been a better choice but 75$ is too much 4 a header like that try ebay for megan header (about $120.00 shipped) its looks great and from what i hear its not that bad. just an opinion.

the pictures are, but whats to say that the actual product is not.....the cheaper one might allow some leaks opposed to the megan which might not... i dunno, i guess it would be trial and error, but i think i would spend a little extra for the megan (considering its cheaper than a dc header anyays)
