Make sure you get a good bore to paint match (barrel kit) if accuracy is what your going for. Sounds like you have pretty much covered all the bases for upgrading some of the "necessaries". Maybe check into one of the CP triggers (if you haven't already) for a smoother feel. Another item to help is a clamping feedneck, so much easier than digging around for an Allen key to remove your loader. Maybe in the future try to find an Ego Star frame. Star frames and their LCD screens makes programming so much simplier. Bump pistons are another very good addition to any Ego/Etek, but good luck finding the HPR piston!

Another good part to look into for 05/06 Ego owners is the Violent Series SE kit. Same idea as the Zick kits made by Planet Eclipse, only made for the 05/06 Ego. If you can find one!

I would recommend getting different sized bores so you can have a good point to bore match since paintballs are always different sizes. Also a Violent SL3 reg for increased efficiency due to being able to shoot down to the last 200 psi, self purging and no worries about losing shims since it has a spring. If you found a cheap star frame that would be cool so you could use 06 triggers and boards, but is not necessary. I prefer the 06 Violent Scythe trigger over CP anyday, it comes with a Allen screw trigger pin, which I just had to use Saturday since my cousin shot me in the hand and paint went all in my trigger, and the CP I had before broke at the top where the top screw went in. A 06 clamping feedneck with the violent Thumbwheel would be nice too.

Good luck finding one, they are next to impossible to find on here along with the bump piston you mentioned earlier.
