Good replacement header for R53 JCW?

My header flex joint is leaking (again). I replaced the first one after about 10-11 years, this one lasted about 7. Can anyone recommend a good replacement? I'm not looking for anything loud, but something comparable and durable. Bonus if it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
