I think you would be right on this one.

Usually "fatter" pipes with a short divergent section are good for lower RPM, and "skinny" pipes with long divergent section are good for higher RPM.

Take a look at the pipes use for nitro boats. Usually they are very long and have a mild taper. These boats are designed to run at top RPM mostly all the time.
