Default TSP 228R or Vengeance VRX3

I am trying to make a choice between the above two cams, both will be on 112LSA. This will be on my car which is street driven only with the mods listed below in sig. The specs. on both cams are close, so Im not sure it makes a difference. I know both cams will have good street manners with a good tune and will make about the same power. Im looking for input to see if one is preferred over the other. I have read tons of threads in ref. to both cams, but nothing that compares them. I have already told myself(Just pick one), but I would like to hear what others say about it. I do not plan to spin the motor past 6500rpm.

Cam Specs. Vengeance VRX3 - 226/228, .585/.588, 112lsa

TSP 228R - 228/228, .588/.588, 112lsa

Thanks for any help or input......

The 228r is the cam that i am wanting to get. It will give good power across the whole rpm range and not have to spin the motor past the stock rev. limiter. Thats just my .02

Thanks for the replys, I started with several choices and Im down to two. Keep the replys coming! Hey Tainted , how is Fayetteville these days? I lived there when I was stationed at Bragg back in the early eighties. I guess it has grown a lot since then.

The TSP cam package is a better deal than buying everything seperate and I agree the 228r is a proven cam. The two cams are so close ,I dont think it will make a big difference, so with that, I just need to buy everything and install it. I will post up results when I get it installed and tuned. Thanks for all of the input.
