Sex Pistols definitely. The New York "punk scene" wasn't even really punk. It was art rock. Bands like the Velvet Underground, Patti Smith, The Ramones...They didn't have any feuled anger in them. No class rage. The British scene on the the other hand, the guys who were in the bands there were speaking out against a country that they felt had abandoned their kind of working class people. In my opinion British punk is true punk, and therefore the Pistols are WAY better. Ramones are excellent, but just now as good...
