questions about 5v (115r) COP output regulation

[rossi46numberone]

Hi everybody,
I'm driving my Golf 4 (1.8T 20v)allday long with my 3.7 installed and it work fine...
But for more reliability I would like to change my old style 3 wires COP for the more recent (115r)with 4 wires (5 Volts trigger).
After some some test on the bench I find that I need +5v to trigger it .
My idea is to use a LM7805 to get stable 5v without worrying about the input.
Why?
because the voltage is never the same and if I use simple resistor, the output will follow these fluctuations.
My questions is :
Can I use this regulator in serial with the direct output of the igbt/logic driver or it would be better to work with stepper driver?
I think yes for both of solutions, but your advice will be very helpfull to confirm

Thanks guys

Do you also find 12V as not usable for driving these coils?

I think many users drive 4 VAG active coils from stepper output + 1 coil from IGBT Logical level input trough 2x510 Ohm in parallel.

i always drives that coil from stepper output(12V) with 100-330ohm in series without problems.

IIRC I had done it directly with no resistors.

Hi,
Job's done,I 've used two LM7805 and stepper pin 4 & 5 (EC18) and it work nice....

Thanks guys for your advice

I'm back with some bad news 
I've fried one of the LM7805 and it's seems that my stepper driver fail
In fact after that issue,I have some hard cut-off(like missfire but stronger) when I connect my laptop with Vemstune open,I feel that the problem happens when the pressure increases and after that the Vemstune disconnected himself and no communication.
If I run my car without connecting the laptop no trouble at all.....
Thing strange is that I can hear these cut-off through my audio speakers,it sounds like an electric parasite.
Now i drive my coils by the logic level trought a 330 ohm resistor and it work great but the problem persist.
