Also, a point if you are adding to the barrel length like I did, (by about 6 inches) you'll also need to get a matching ported cylinder. For now, though if you change just the hopup and the barrel (regular MP5 length), you'll have a very gameable AEG.
Simply changing the battery to a 3500Mah 8.4v won't increase ROF enough to warrant that. I wouldn't suggest to any newb that they run a high speed setup, especially with a V2 gun shooting hot. There's a lot more to making a high ROF set up then putting in a stronger battery.
