Ok, im looking at getting a RB header. The one im looking at is an older model I think. (pic if I got it, I would have it sandblasted and ceramic coated ). But my question is would the newer model give me any more hp? Would it be worth it to spend the extra 150 and get a new one? like so...

No I dont see why. Unless the piping diameter is different.

looks like the first on, the rusty one that is was a better put together piece. the polished one had a slip fit pipe connection wich i have never sean in any rb header. prolly works just the same but the craftsmenship on the second one is shotty.

When I got mine I had to put a o2 bung in it no big deal, that second one is just a RB flange, someone thought they would be cool and make some ghetto RB headers and sell them.
