Sadly, no.
>One study, by Maish and colleagues in Pharmacotherapy 1996, looked at whether grapefruit juice increased caffeine effects and found little or no difference in blood concentrations and blood pressure when caffeine was given with and without GFJ. Other research has confirmed these results. Since specific enzyme systems most often metabolize similar chemicals, one would not necessarily expect GFJ to affect other stimulants, but this is far from conclusive.

- foobarian 7y agoIIRC naringin has an indirect effect on coffee, where it inhibits an enzyme that is involved in metabolizing caffeine. So the outcome is that the effect of your coffee lasts a lot longer, instead of being more potent. Edit: Now that I go looking again, there is also evidence against this conclusion: https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-04/aps-rsm040903.php https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-04/aps-rsm04090...
