So much higher that after as little as .3-.5 seconds the larger plenum would be at a higher RPM, but it had a longer initial delay.

Throttle response is the time between throttle actuation and the appropriate change in engine behaviour, not the amount of change.
i can't understand what u just said... but IMO w/o any tests and just driving u feel the response difference on the butt-dyno...
