No. If you modify the system for more than 120 psi, the inspectors at your event will prevent you from competing. Moreover, it is a safety risk.
To minimize pressure loss, use accumulators to store a larger volume of compressed air. I very strongly suggest that you read the Pneumatics Manual and section 8.3.9 of this years rules before proceeding any further with your development.
