If you want 350 FPS just take it to AEX and they will upgrade to metal bushings and a M100.

Spring and bushings. Use a m100 spring. The stock TM nozle is fine, no need to replace it till you break it. Same thing with the cylinder and cylinder head. Get a Systema shim set, Guarder bushing set (6mm) and a m100 spring. you will have to remove the piston head to remove the stock TM spring, so go with a Systema duracon piston head. Parts should run around $ 60.

Are this things (the upgrades) things i can do myself? I'm a very mechanical guy and i'm not a mental midgit. I'm just a little nervous about crackin open my brand new gun.

Another battery question? I know will the 9.6 3300 be fine? But why don't you guys just buy the 10.8v or bigger right from the get go, and throw it on a laylex sling? is it a waste? really just wondering. (i know it's a total noob question but curcify me after you answer ok?)

I currently use a 9.6 on my CA m4, and have no problems. but yes, from what I've heard, TM pistons and cylenders are great until they wear out naturaly. I wait till something breaks, then I upgrade. However, in the 3 guns i've owned, none have broken so I've been lucky so far ~ knock on wood~

+1 just upgrade your bushings and spring. There is no need to replace your nozzle.
