OK. First things first: There is no Carbonite minimap. There is one Carbonite map and it is either minimized or maximized (that would be the equivalent of Blizzards world map) or closed (not on screen). Blizzard has three separate maps: The World Map, the Minimap, and the "Zone" map (sometimes referred to as the battleground map). The Carbonite map and Blizzards minimap can be merged, but either way, there is no Carbonite minimap. Perhaps a technicality, but it is what it is.
That being said: You can restore the minimized map scale by right clicking a non icon area and choosing "Restore map scale" in the menu.
When the maps are merged there is no way to keep them both constantly the same size. This is because of the differences in the way both maps zoom. Blizzards minimap has only six levels of zoom, but Carbonites minimized map is capable of "infinite" zoom.
