Is it two years from the moment I wire the money to the regional center, when I file the I-526 (the filing date) or when the project starts? Because the project I am looking at has already begun construction and is in its second phase.

EB-5 Immigration attorneysThe investment must be at risk for the entire time of the investment until you obtain conditional residence and during your conditional residency, which is two years. This takes into account the time your initial case will be pending plus the two years of conditional residency which is typically longer than two years.
