Default Cable or Hydro...preferences??

i want to get a hydro tranny but its cheaper for the cable and my friend who's a
tech at an acura dealership says that hydro's no better than cable...but does it feel different? is the clutch pedal harder to push down on a cable tranny??

The decision would probably be better made knowing the chassis the motor is going in.

My 99si is supercharged on the stock clutch and it doesnt hold it very well.(hydro)

My DA B16 all bolt on-s cable tranny grabs hella good.(Cable)

The feeling to me on the hydro is much easier so if your in traffic alot its nice and easy. But the cable tranny is pretty tight on my other car. Yes i know it adjustable but still tight.

Just my opinion.
