Borna,
The stock configuration according to your figures comes to 20.5 oz. per square foot. If you increase the weight to 163 oz., your wing loading would be under 24 oz. / square foot. You just have to do the math to determine if it is within reasonable limits. 25 to 30 oz. per square is good for a model of this size.
