Loaded ROM vs installing CABs?

[meanfishy]

I am the new proud owner of a TP, build date 11-26-08, thanks to Mastanthony89 and his post on BB's sale for TPs http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=48627

my dilemma, I like/know to cook ROMs and have done MANY for my 6800. after looking to cook a ROM for the TP using BuildOS and reading through the TP posts I am unsure what is the best way to proceed. I would prefer a custom ROM for more speed/responsiveness etc...

1. do I create a loaded ROM, although the list of items in the TP kitchen is less than that of the Titan kitchen.
1.1 where can I find a FULL list of of the different ROM authors and what they have to offer, the searches I did didn't produce the wanted results.

2. create a "clean" ROM and then add all the different CABs
2.1 where can I find a FULL list of of the different CABs and what they have to offer, the searches I did didn't produce the wanted results.

Thanks
