Here are my internals:

-IK light weight BBU + piston
-Guarder 150% recoil spring
-Firefly hopup
-Tanio Koba Twist barrel
If you're using a metal slide replace it with the stock plastic one, and also go with a plastic barrel. I think the one piece non traditional (tilting) style barrel by IK (a barrel that never comes into contact with the slide, so you won't have to worry about metal bashing on plastic) also helps with cycling speed. Not by much, but if you want to get into microseconds then its worth looking into.
