In a recent benchmark by Piggot, PiƱeiro and Khalid ( http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ct3003157 ), they showed that the TIP3P flavour may affect some properties (ApL) for simulations with CHARM36, concluding that CHARMM-TIP3P is recommended, at least for DPPC.

I've also experienced similar issues with DMPC.

which CHARMM36 FF do you use? The CHARMM36 is being update from time to time.

It may have some influence on the head property of the lipids, but how much it would be for the whole protein/membrane system, it is still unclear. For the long time scaled MD simulations, many people would be hesitated to introducing charmm-TIP3P which sacrifice too much speed.....

I've also observed that in several paper, people said Na+ have influence on POPC property similar to your claims, but most people still prefer to use POPC+0.15M NaCl which is the most close system to physiology environment.
