Helical gears.

Helical gears. Would they be better than stock CA gears for an M150? And do helicals need a special piston?

Yes, and not necessarily. Some extremely high torque helical gear sets require a half tooth piston, but most do not. If you are not sure, send me a link and I will tell you.

Unless you've already got a set on hand, I'd get a different set of gears. Today's motors can easily pull back an M150 on stock or lower ratio gears. Dom covered the rest of your question.

^You would need a half tooth piston for that BTW, but you really don't need that much torque. I would go with SHS though if you want to save some money.

Hm. Too many different gear sets. Where can one buy a suppressor that actually suppresses? Ie a foam suppressor or something that doesn't cost $80?
