I used Flowmasters on mine and think they sound great. I would judge that that I am just at the legal noise limit, so when I see a cop I cool it.

I extended the pipes straight back just beyond the end of the bumper about 2 inches. The sound in the cab is not that bad.

At 32 miles per hour I get this awesome resonance that really sounds mellow.

Good luck.

Thank you for all the info, I'm going for the best sound that I can get. I would like to hear the differance but it's hard to find someone with a split 235.

I have a split 235 with glass packs. Not real happy with the sound. I'm thinking about changing mine. :confused:
