Default coolant overflow

So, this may or may not be a dumb question but can i move the overflow? I'm doing the civic half core mod to make room for a bigger turbo. Since i deleted the a/c i was thinking about mounting the reservoir where the condenser used to sit. Would this caus3 any problems?

It's pretty much just a tank, you can mount it anywhere so long as it doesn't restrict the radiator's air source. Going with a half core myself I'n a little worried about cutting off any more air feed to the overall surface area of the heat exchanger. Though plenty of people have run FMICs in front of the half core, so even then I doubt you'd do much damage unless you put a huge reservoir right in front of the radiator. Just get an empty monster can and some hose, mount that to the side

Haha thanks! I plan on just moving the stock reservoir. I like the clean loooks it gives without it anyways.

Actually it's pretty tempting to use one of these:

^ I assume that's just a temporary thing?
