I don't have experience with the Echo1 G36, so take this information with a grain of salt, but my suggestion would be:

Bearing Spring Guide
Polycarb piston and piston head (head doesn't need to be bearing)
If it doesn't have metal bushings, put in metal bushings.
New hop-up (pro-win ones are good, even the stock CA one is decent)
polycarb tappet plate
maybe a new nozzel (prometheus ones are good).
Properly shim it too.
Regrease it.
