If you want more durability a spring downgrade and a metal teeth piston should be your primary upgrades. A lighter spring is softer on motor and the gearbox overall and the piston is what causes most of gearbox failures from my experience. From my experience with CYMA a new piston head will help a lot because the stock pistons dont seal very well against the cylinder.
Other that that if you have a good tech just ask him to verify the shimming and the angle of engagement of the piston. Very few things needed here.

Do you want laser precison with support gun ?
If you need more range a good hop-up bucking and metal hop-up unit could be a good first buy and unexpensive. The lonex chambers are fine and stock cyma can be too. For bucking I personally like to change them for madbull blue and PDI W depending on build, never tried lonex bucking but I heard good things about them.
Then you can start to think about good aftermarket steel barrels like PDI for exemple. (I've heard a lot of bad things with modify aluminium barrels). But again : Do you REALLY need laser precison with a support gun ? Will you be using .superheavy ammo and try to get super long range kills or you intend to spray .20/.25 on full auto with a drum mag ?
