Larger than LTR cap

Hello everyone,
It's been a while since I asked a newbie question so I guess it's about 
that time again. =D I am designing a new mini coil using a 9/20 nst. The 
LTR tank size therefore is quite small. (.0088 uF) This blows the required 
primary turns sky high, making the necesary diameter of the primary quite 
large, defeating the purpose of it being a mini coil. So would there be any 
consequences if I stretched the value for the tank cap to, say, .0125 uF? 
This would also save the number of geek caps that I have to stuff under the 
base. Any thoughts?
