Barrel or board? w/ some questions

how accurate is the stock barrel?  If its not very acurate you should prolly upgrade the barrel first.  Also why Stiffi?  They are a good barrel but most of the ones I have seen are pricey.

i wasnt gonna say anything lol

Well since its autococker threaded I would recomend my favorite barrel which is J&J.  I have never heald a stiffi so I am not sure of the weight difference but Mine is pretty light (then again I put it on an A5 so I probably wouldnt notice the difference as much as you).  There is also the lapco barrels.  I usually recommend those simply because of price and great performance especially for the price.  you may be able to buy both the board and the barrel if you spent that amount.

I have another question on here.  Which is better the APE board or the Tadao?

Ehhh.... boards aren't really necessary these days with most stock markers. Boards really only came into play with the older markers like the early DMs and Early E-Cockers as the stock boards usually only ran semi mode with an eye logic that could be turned on or off. After the debacle that Smart Parts faced with their Shocker boards having "turbo" modes which essentially got them banned from a lot of tournament series in the late 90's, most other manufacturers didn't want to produce a marker where the board could come under question. Only with the advent of legal ramping in PSP NXL and Millennium series have stock boards had different modes included. Now, you get something that rips 15.5bps right out of the box if you set it to PSP (soon to be lowered to 13.3bps) an upgraded board is pretty much useless unless you plan on using full-auto modes for scenario games or whatnot.
