Default Engine Spool time vs. Flameout Probability..

For a given turbine, Assuming the engine acceleration parameter is adjustable, Is the spool time inversely proportional with the probability for a flameout?

Just got a Merlin 160 but Im used to flying my Titan with a 5-6 second transition from idle to max RPM. I don't really need to take advantage of the extra fast acceleration..... Especially if it increases the chance of a flameout.
