Default torque 2818t/900 question

Hey guys so im running a 35 amp air boss on this motor with my 45 inch edge. I am a little underpowerd so I upped the prop size to a 13x6.5. I am now pushing 32 amps on ground (25 or so in sky) but my esc is running a little hot on landing. Its on a 3 cell by the way. Anyway I was going to upgrade to a 45 amp esc and stick with this set up but now im thinking of running 4 cells. The site says this motor has crazy power with 45 amp speed control, this motor and a 4 cell. Weird thing is im pushing 32 or so amps with a 3 cell and the motor says rated to 35 amps. Im afraid that a 4 cell will overload the motor. Has anyone ran a 4 cell on this motor? if so what are the results? I would be going back down to 12x6 prob but still think i would be pushing the motor's limit
