Depends on your criteria, budget, what your weak points you need to compensate for, and what advantages you're trying to get. For generic answers;

If you're at a $150 and under budget I'd get
1) 20 oz CO2 tank
2) If your paint is smaller than your Smartparts barrel, then a Custom Parts .685 bore barrel
3) Mid level agitated hopper (Revy, Richo AK, ect.)
4) Anti-siphones for your tanks

If you're at a $500 budget
1) 20 oz tank
2) Multi-bore barrel system. Evils, Freaks....
3) Mid level Hopper
4) Anti-Siphons
5) Female Palmer Stabilizer (can be used with either CO2 or HPA of nearly any design)
6) Repair kit
7) A drop forward system that will bring your rear sights to your dominate eye without any adjustment after bringing the gun up.

Course, this could change depending on how you play the game and your tactics. Like if you shoot 12BPS, or you tend to do sniper tactics, my suggestions would change quickly. My suggestions above is just what I view as the most cost effective means to give you the most versitle setup.

: I have a Tippmann Custom 98 with a smartparts 12" barrel, a remote coil, and a 14, and 12 ounce C02, I am looking to upgrade it soon but don't know what to get. My main thoughts are either a flatline barrel or a response/double trigger. If anyone has some thoughts or suggestions I would really appreciate them.
