"Which ball is better for Rico drilling Heist or Cherry Vibe?"I think you're either asking thew wrong question or not giving enough information. The Rico drilling is just another drilling; it forces a change of characteristics on a ball's designed-in reaction for a bowler's release. It makes the ball start hooking earlier and makes the backend much more arc-like than the ball's normal backend. It makes the ball slightly stronger because of the overall hook (at least as far as I have seen) and this allows it to handle more carrydown and more oil than with "normal" or average drillings, but
it's still JUST a drilling.You need to have some idea how any ball, for which you wish to use this drilling, will react for you on xxx oil pattern, for your release, before you can have any idea how the Rico drilling will modify this ball's reaction for you.
Unless you can afford it, I'd suggest trying the Rico on a ball you already have sitting around, either new or used, before using it on a ball you are going to buy.
Normally, the Cherry Vibe will go longer and have more backend than a Heist, which handles more oil, and is earlier and more controlled.
Normally, the Vibe might skid too far, with regular drillings, compared to the Heist, when the Heist is hitting the pocket. The Heist could be rolling out, or burnign up in the midlane, when the CV is hitting the pocket well. Keep in mind that house blended shots can mask the difference. With these two balls (CV for medium-light oil and the Heist for medium oil) there isn't a huge difference bewtween them, but the way they go about their job is very different.
So the interaction between these balls and the oil pattern on which you will be using them is the true deciding factor. Right now only you can determine that.
