why would you want to do that? As many electrical probs with these cars I wouldnt. Every sensor runs off a 5v reference, making everything .5v higher I think would/could just create a nightmare....I could be wrong but thats my opinion.

I'm sure it's one of those things that multitudes of engineers "just didn't think about" when designing the electronics systems in our cars.

Since the charging system on the C5 operates between 11 to 16 voltrs I doubt that you would see any difference at all.

That IS how BAPs work however, you tune for it once done. More pressure on the fuel pump=more fuel flow through the injectors.
