Welcome to the forum.

Frankly, you already have the main upgrades.  You have a good barrel and a firepower upgrade, so unless you are having problems there is no reason to do anything more.

The next logical thing would be nitro, but if you aren't having freeze problems I wouldn't worry about it.

There are, of course, unlimited cosmetic upgrades available...

That is always festive.  If you upgrade your board, however, you will also want to upgrade the Cyclone to keep up.

If you are going to get the 2 you might as well go all out and get the lightening rod with it.  They sell it in a combo pack with all 3.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

If you play in the cold I would suggest HPA over most things.

'Tis your marker though.
