Default which cam to get?

I was thinking something around a 228-230 duration and 580-590 lift and a 112 lsa

I was thinking the TSP 228R or a reverse split TR cam

I just want something that is daily driveable and has a nice mean lope...not worried about peak hp...

this is going in a 04 gto a4 w/a 3000 fuddle stall.

Ok, so no dyno queen....Just a good street performer with sharp response when you need it?
