How to get a good air seal?

I was wondering how to get a good seal in the gearbox/air nozzle/hop-up and all the connections in-between. Is there certain parts that i should use, or teflon tape, and where is the most air pressure lost? Is it in the piston/air nozzle area...or the connection between the air nozzle and hop-up unit? I'd appreciate the help.

Most modify parts gives best air seal. Using one brand for internals gives out best performance.

Anything with double o-ring is best, like double o-ring cylinder head.

Just make sure the o-rings are doing its job. In the pistonhead, cylinderhead, airseal nozzle and hop-up mech when it mates on the gearbox.
