Paintball Jersey Vortex

Is this good stuff to buy for a Tippmann A5?

I am looking to upgrade my A5 into an electronic marker, these are the following upgrades I plan to purchase:

These are all upgrades to increase rate-of-fire:

-Tippmann A5 E-Grip WAS Board- 99.95 CDN$
-TechT A5 Vortex Mod- 45.95 CDN$
-TechT Squichy Paddles For Cyclone- 29.95 CDN$

These upgrades will increase range: (Just a better quality Co2 tank than I currently have)

-BT Paintball APEX Barrel A5- 69,95 CDN$
-DXS 20oz Co2 Tank- 38.95 CDN$

These upgrades will make the gun lighter:

-NXe 4+1 Harness- 21.20 CDN$
-Kingman Remoteline- 44.95 CDN$

This is just a jersey and pant combo:

-Smart Parts Fighter 3 Jersey- 47.95 CDN$
-Smart Parts Fighter 3 Pants- 71.95 CDN$

Just looking for opinions on whether or not this stuff is worthwhile and worth the money.

Thank You.

APE E-Grip is much better than WAS and more reliable

For about $109, you can get the entire Tech-T cyclone kit

Apex tip increases range but the barrel is bad. I highly recommend a Palmers Brass Barrel:

(not longer than 16", porting not needed on a tippmann, .690 bore)
Apex tip adaptor:

or the tape mod to put the Apex tip on the Palmers Brass Barrel.

Lighten the gun, a 32* remote line without slide check (slide checks are junk), instead one of these which is much more reliable:

When you run remote, the gun is a little harder to balance. I suggest a folding adjustable stock.

If your playing woodsball, I would suggest some BDU's, military camo.

All of this is a big investment and I personally would slowly add it instead of all at once. Slowly adding it will let you use it and find out what upgrades you really want.

If you will be playing for a while and regularly, it would be a good investment.
