The only worthwhile mods on that C98 are the double trigger and the progressive barrel, but neithers gonna help you shoot more than 5 - 8 bps... get a spyder that shoots 13 bps out of the boxHmm Let me see, Raine you need to learn more about Paintball then.

First off, a C98 is a Great entry level gun. Its Bullet proof, and any idiot can use it.
Its made By Tippmann, Another Reason a C98 is a great gun.
If you go out and get a Canadian Tire Semi Electro, Or Even a JT Electro, Be prepare to buy 100 cup seals, Cause you need to replace them ever case of paint.
I've used Many guns in my Days, I've owned them all, And i would still say the most reliable Markers I've used have been Tippmanns and Smart Part products.
After 11 Years of playing, 6 of those Tourney Ball, I can tell you first hand Don't buy a Cheap electro, They will give you nothing but problems.
The only Spyder that will shoot 13 bps is a AMG outa the box .
Remember Raine Thiers a Diffrence between Balls per second and Shots per second...
Seeing that thiers Only a 100 or so mods to do to a c98
