Well, mastery is crap for shadow last I heard (I am a disc priest so dont keep up too much on shadow), so the DMC:Volcano is devalued right there. Assuming tsunami procs from VE (which if it is being recommended by anyone for shadow it should, but it is still worth confirming as the trinket is crap otherwise) it essentially becomes a constant hit and int trinket since VE should keep this up 100% even if you go through a movement phase since your dot ticks will keep it going.
Int / hit is a solid trinket itemization for shadow. Just make sure you can actually use all the hit this trinket will grant (400) and it should be a solid purchase for you, and as a bonus it is a very nice healing trinket for your OS (assuming you have a heal OS)
That said, Volcano is significantly cheaper than Tsunami on my server at least, and is still likely better than a 346.

Spirit does nothing for any dps when in combat. The values stay the same. Healers have talents that allow a % of OOC regen to keep on throughout combat.
Mastery is now decent for shadow. DMC:V is still brilliant due to it's proc and you can reforge the mastery. You should not rely on hit from a trinket proc.

I am going to assume your responding directly to me, since I am the only one who came out in support of it so...

Other than provide hit. Please note in my entire post I refered to the spirit as hit, nothing more.

Very glad they fixed our mastery, that does help volcano's case a lot.
Volcano:
193 mastery
128 haste
~360 average int as 12 bursts of 1.6k int. (slightly more or less depending on your luck on procs, spriests should see near max uptime tho)
almost non-existent direct fire dps. (somewhere around 25 dps)
Tsunami:
321 static int
400 static hit
You should not rely on hit from a trinket proc.
This comment is not relevant to the topic at hand, Tsunami does not have a spirit proc. Tsunami has a stacking buff with a 100% up-time (assuming VE stacks it).
With mastery being not-suck now I will agree that Volcano is the clearly better choice, but if you are gearing both specs up, tsunami is still a very nice trinket that will be fantastic for healing and very solid for Shadow as well. (again IF VE stacks the spirit(hit) buff.)

I would NOT spend that much on a healing trinket if you do not and don't plan to heal. You can get trinkets that are better for you from heroics, as someone else said. You definitely shouldn't rely on a proc to put you at the hit cap, and that's all spirit does for you - provide hit.
Now if you want to spend 25k and give that trinket to me...that's another story :-P
