Depends on the salary and your skill set. I would ask for at lease $5,000 more unless you believe this offer already to be over the top. You might need to loose out on the 90 raise but the extra money up front will make up for it, and next year you will still get another raise.
Other things to consider would be how long the job was on market before you came along. If they went though a multitude of interviews before offering you the position I'd take that as an opportunity to ask for more money. I would also doubt they would just up and say sorry, we are going with applicant B because he/she didn't ask for more money.
