I went with the 235 because I drove the 235. If you like the 428,
do not drive the 435.
I actually wasn't considering the 428, but they didn't have a 228 and they have the same engine (even though the 428 adds a couple hundred pounds). The turbo lag was definitely a lingering thought, but the main reasons I went with the 235 are that it wasn't that much more than the 228 once I built out each one, and I know I'll never regret it over the smaller engine.
I first noticed it on the highway, and those jumps from ~60-70mph were the only time it was annoying to me.
