Will I get penalized by IRS if I claim 9 on my W-2 form for just one paycheck?

I have a lot of expenses coming up and want to know the best way to get more out of my next paycheck and return it back to 0 on next pay period without getting audited by IRS.

You would only get penalized if you don't pay in ratably such that you would owe more than $1,000 in tax when you file your return.
