A suppressor (added onto an existing firearm) increases dwell time (the length of time pressure is applied to the gas port) and can slightly increases pressure, both leading to higher bolt speed meaning higher cyclic speed. TLDR:Supressor means faster firerate.

No it does not, all the Suppressor does is muffles the sound, there is no way that it can change the rate of fire of a gun.
