Have a question on T5's

I have an Icecap 660 ballast with 4 T5 stand offs but I want to include a 5th bulb will that stop my bulbs from being overrun by the ballast ?

currrent bulbs
2xATI Blue
2xATI Blue Plus

want to add -
1xKZ Fiji Purple
 
You can only run a max. of 4 bulbs and 16 feet of bulbs. There's only wiring for 4 bulbs on the 660.
 
I was reading on the website and saw this -

One ballast can operate any combination, up to 4 lamps, with a total not exceeding 440 Watts.

5 bulbs @ 39w = 195w

that was my next problem how to wire it.
 
any combination - up to 4 lamps AND not exceeding 440 watts

Their statement does seem a little ambiguous. But it doesn't matter what wattage the lamps are (as long as they don't exceed 440w total) you can only run a max of 4 lamps.
