Ics CXP Hog Upgrades to Silence

[RAM]

Hi

Me and a friend have ICS CXP HOG aeg's and was wanting to make them a bit quiter we are interested in purchasing the following parts

SHS M4 Cylinder Head Aluminium (Silent)
SHS Piston Head Silent (Aluminium)
SHS Tappet Plate (V2)

SHS M4 Aluminium Nozzle Double O-Ring (21.4mm)
SHS 16:1 Gears
SHS Stainless Steel Cylinder (3/4)

We were wondering if this would be a good setup along with what upgrades we have already carried out which are
Maple leaf super macaroon hop rubber & omega hop up tensioner, Maple leaf crazy jet inner barrel (260mm long), M95 Spring cutdown to get to 346FPS & Gate Warfet.
running on deans 7.4 lipo 1300mah

Any suggestions would be appreciated as we are both new to this.

how silent do you want/are expecting to be able to get?

because it might be easier to sell your soul to hpa/go for a mk23 if you want the quietest possible setup.

however. higher speed gears are a good idea especially with precocking, a longer barrel helps with the pop.

i'd stay away from those "silent" piston heads, the ones i've met have a nasty habit of screwing up your aoe and having pretty terrible air seal.

was just wanting to get a it a little quiter for when playing CQB and needing to be a bit of a Sneaky SOB as I know I was getting spotted easier because of the noise from the hog. If the Silent piston heads are not that good would you recommend something else ?

One day I might be able to get a HPA but if I was to even attempt it at the moment I would be dead lol.

I'd look at running a mk23 as a sidearm and keep the hog as-is then, you'll get the gold standard of airsoft silence without sacrificing firepower.

Check the Nozzle length. ICS M4 Nozzles are shorter than standard M4s.

I would suggest this instead:

Have a look at this.

Some useful bits, although it doesn't really work for anything that's not a bullpup (AUG, P90s, PDR-C, you get the idea)
