9010 cup for a 9005?

I just bought a used 9005 with sump kit (for $180! awesome deal!!). I'm concerned about the tiny cup when I'm away for a few days. It is possible to buy the 9010 cup and use it on the 9005?
 
The cup actually holds quite a bit and will shut down when full so you don't have to worry about it overflowing. The 9010 cup is taller and designed to be used with a more powerful pump, so you will get little or no foam that makes it all the way into the cup. It would sort of ruin the good deal you got too, the 9010 cup is expensive.
 
Thanks. I hope I'm happy with the 9005. I see most people recommend the 9010, but I guess that is mainly because of the price comparison with the 9005 new since the 9010 includes the sump kit. It just seems like in every thread the 9005 is mentioned, everything after that is "get the 9010 instead". But since I got the 9005 with a sump kit at such a great price, I think (hope) I made the right choice.

You will be happy with it and if it isn't quite enough you can always upgrade the pump later.
