An easier analogy would be a paper bag with some air blown into it.

If you close the end as good as you can, then put your hand against it and start pushing, air will just flow out by the cracks.

If you take a swing instead, the bag will blow, meaning too much energy is transferred to the paper and it breaks.

Same could be applied to AEGs... install a full (no port) cylinder into an MP5... the BB will just "flow" out of the barrel.

No use a type 2 (50% porting) cylinder and try again. You should hit a normal FPS range.

On anything past a M4 CQB-R, the difference is very minimal. But the more difference there is between the "lenght range" of the cylinder and the actual barrel, the more effect it will give. Too long cylinder will give lost and inconsitent FPS. Too short cylinder will give low FPS and erratic trajectory.
