Default Header gaskets: Should I spend more?

I am going to be replacing my stock headers with a pair of Fabspeeds. Can spend $30 on Porsche oem gaskets, or $80 on Fabspeed. Porsche oem seem to be shaped thin metel, while the Fabspeed are a fabric. Any point in going with the more expensive item?

Thanks

I used the gaskets that came with my headers.
They were the thick layered gaskets.
They blew out in less than 2000 miles, go with the factory steel.
