Vulture2 would make it accelerate slower as well as have a lower top speed.
Acceleration isn't a stat that is uncorrelated to your top speed. Let's assume you have two ACs with 500 acceleration. One has a top speed of 200 and the other has a top speed of 400. The AC with a top speed of 200 will accelerate significantly slower than the AC with a top speed of 400, even though they both have the same booster acceleration speed. That's why I said that tuning for acceleration on Gull for really light ACs isn't particularly worth it. It's not negligible, but it's not a game breaker either. Especially for underweighted lights. Once you start to pass the 6500 total weight barrier you start to see noticeable gains in acceleration from tuning Gull. Noticeable as in noticeable in frame data, you probably won't be able to see it with the human eye in standard play.
He definitely shouldn't change to V2, though. Gull with full heat tunes on a lightweight AC is 100% superior to V2 on a lightweight AC with any tunes. The only case where this could be different is if you build your lightweight to have very, very poor base cooling. Not being able to break 15,000 cooling, for example. That's more of a design flaw in other parts of the AC than in the boosters, though.
What I'm saying is, he's more likely to suffer losses from an OH centered genbust than from a slightly lower acceleration.
