Message between 2.0" piping and 2.5" piping and given the huge volumes of air being moved, the difference to fill the pipes to 14psi was 65 milliseconds longer. i.e. there is going to be no detriment to spoolup. In fact, because of the larger diameter pipe, the gases move slower which reduces flow resistance and actually benefits spoolup due to decreases in pressure drop.

Filling the larger endtank of the MASSIVES vs. a smaller counterpart is going to be even less of a time difference.

Unless you had an intercooler the size of a fridge on the front of your car, the fill time is totally negligible.
