What wire? For rewiring an ICS L85

I know how to solder and I'm planning on simply replacing the wiring in my ICS L85 after I damaged my motor connectors the last time I was taking the gearbox apart. While I am at it I'm planning on replacing the Large Tamiya battery connectors with deans. I may include a mosfet but that's still up in the air at the moment.

I'm in need of some advice, because I don't know about the gauges of wire and which ones to use.

Could someone point me in the direction of the correct wire gauge, a link to a quality wire if there is differences would also be helpful. Would I be able to use one gauge throughout or different ones depending on where in the AEG they are?

About the gun, I run 8.6 and 9.8 V NiMH batteries currently but I might switch to LiPo's in the future, I'm not after high speed setup or high torque, it's simply my Primary AEG so set to run sweetly at 350fps.
