I have just laid my mits on a spyder sonix and so far have added a big daddy barrel and a drop forward bar. But now I don't know what else to add to it. I need things that will quite a noticable difference in performance. Any ideas??

Thanks for adhereing to the call of a lame-o:confused:

12v revvy

I posted a similar call for help in the newbie forum for my Compact 2000, nearly everybody told me to get a 12v Revolution Hopper. That way you can fire as fast as you can pull the trigger with zero ball-breaks.
I don't fire very fast right now, but I'll be sure to get one in the near-future.

Does the sonix come with a reg? If you are using co2 then I reccomend you get one, makes it much more consistant. I have a Palmer Stabiliser

I can't tell whether it is a regulator or a foregrip. The metal hose travells into this grip but when I look up there it looks hollow all the way to the actual marker.

A reg drops the pressure down to below what the tank supplys it at, also some regs help to evaporate liquid co2. Without a reg, as your tank get emptyer, then the pressure to the gun will drop off, causing your maker to go slower and slower. A reg will keep the co2 / air flow into the valve more consistant.

Oh oh oh, I keep reading that the hyperframe by centreflag is quite a good mod, but a bit pricey for me. It's basically an electronic trigger grip, giving selectable modes of fire, very short trigger pull and probably as many bps as you can take - im told spyders can cycle at up to 40cps. Which is quite fast, but i doubt youll get a hopper to feed at that rate, the max seems to be about 13. Anyway, just a thought.
