Default S4 ROM suggestions?

Not enjoying the stock ROM, anyone got any suggestions for decent customs ROMs?

I've tried the Cyanogenmod ROM (ICS) on my Galaxy Tab and it is pretty good, stable and very customisable and non of the bloatware that comes with stock roms. Has good support and updates.

I'm now using my own customised stock rom, no bloatware, rooted, zip aligned, deodexed, supercharged, A1 kernel and replaced Touchwiz with Apex launcher. Runs very nicely!

had an email telling me that my 18 month old s1 was no longer under warranty as it had a non "Samsung" approved rom .. lol .. was very polite in my email reply.
