Can I just put a 130A ESC in my Granite and run on 4S?

As title says - if I just drop in a larger ESC on my BLX - can I just plug in a 4S with the stock motor? It is the current model Granite BLX with the 3200kV motor.
 
Unofficially yes, but it's not the best idea IMO. Watch the ESC/motor temps and lower the throttle end points so you don't over-rev the motor

But technically no - the 3200kv motor is supposedly only rated for 3S, 4S can make it fail prematurely

Makes sense. Was just curious if anyone has done this. I guess would over-rev the motor more than it was designed and burn it up faster with the higher voltage.
