Hmm, the only place I've found so far with A&K SVD specific upgrades is www.airsoftpro.cz.
Their EDM'd steel piston sear is great, I see no wear on mine after 200+ rounds fired (the stock A&K one is crap; mine showed serious wear/rounding after 3(!) test shots w/OEM (450fps) spring)
Their CNC'd aluminum piston is a work of art; the piston head is removable, can be swapped for any AEG piston head, and they've press-fit a hard steel ring (lathe-turned after fitting for perfect alignment) where the piston hooks to the sear.
They've also made a brass spacer ring you can slip over the spring guide to allow the use of shorter AEG springs.
I've picked up all three, and am immensely happy with them.

So far my stock hopup has works admirably, I've found it performs best with .3g bbs. I've been told (but haven't tried yet) that standard AEG hopup rubbers will work with a bit of careful trimming.
