During accel, all the variable components will track very closely the windup in N2. The lag is measured in milliseconds.

During decel/chop, the same is true (and even more critical) with the following exception: The VBV's (booster bleed doors) will "pop" wide open instantaneously to reduce core airflow. This means the LPT is developing less torque, and thus the fan spools down faster.
