Default FM13 or X2

Hey guys, I have been researching the cam that I want for about 3 months now. I have come down to two cams the X2 and FM13 (as stated in title.) Now, I saw the graph of the 3 different cams with those two plus the TR224 and noticed that the FM13 has better low end, both have same mid range, and the X2 barely gets 5 hp more right before the graph stops. With all that said, I would normally jump all over the FM13 but there is one thing. I like how the X2 has 232/240, versus FMS's 232 split. I plan on doing a 150 shot of nitrous. With the 150 shot in mind, which cam to you think would perform the best on nitrous? Without it I would go FMS hands down. I plan on doing a lot of street driving though. Both look good with nitrous to me, but need to know which one will be better suited for my needs. Thanks guys.

If a 150 shot is all that's planned, it won't really matter which cam you go with. Personally I would choose the cam that performs the best na unless you intend to spray a lot.

Anything below a 200 shot won't be that big of a deal. Choose the cam that you like better for N/A performance. Either cam will work fine with the jug.

In that case, I'll just stick with the FM13, and then later if i wanted, the max shot i could do is 200 without worrying about other cams, which i will never spray any higher anyways. Thanks guys for the quick responses.
