consider upgrading to a 7.2v lipo with the standard gear ratio if you don't want a new gearset. You get significantly more amperage out of a lipo vs 1800mah NiMH, therefore more torque.
ehobby is really bad for rating their spring 100fps under their actual performance, please go by the ASC spring chart or reviews!
highly recommend Falcon or firefly hop rubber
highly recommend ARS piston head/cylinder head, they get the best performance I've seen of any heads
Use .3g BBs up to 440fps, .32 if you can get those, .28s if you're cheap
And the 509mm barrel works, but 420 is about where your accuracy peaks, anything past that is just a waste. 6.03 is the perfect bore IMO though

Pretty complete, but for the Piston Head, I would go with the Lonex POM Piston head. POM, or Polyoxymethylene, is like a plastic that's low-wear, low-friction, and is less brittle than Polycarb. It's the ideal thing to put in your gearbox.
A sorbo would be good, too.
