I've just never thought about modifications to a normal FRC system am very interested in projects like this.

The amperage rating of a power supply tells you how much current it is capable of supplying. You can can safely replace any DC power supply with another one that has the same voltage rating and equal or higher current rating.
FRC batteries are 12 volts and rated for about 18 amp-hours. A battery capable of 12 volts at 36 amp-hours, for example, will power your robot for twice as long.
