Would this Exhaust work?????

So i love the look and sound of an HKS exhaust on almost every car, but they dont make one for the 05 ST. Is there one that i could get that would fit onto my car?

http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=715

I was thinking the one for the ZX3 2.3l

for "off road use only"...

well the standard exhaust like magnaflow or mbrp are typically setup to be just a lil shorter than sedan exhausts...

so i mean if you could just weld a sleave somewhere on a straight piece of the HKS, assuming its like other exhaust systems and ends up being shorter, you might pull it off...

Wow, talk about an expensive exhaust. I'm assuming the "Off road only" warning is because they delete the second cat... wonder why it isn't on all of their Focus exhausts.

I would guess a Trubendz exhaust with only one Magnaflow muffler or the MBRP being the loudest.

just unhook the stock exhaust from the stock exhaust manifold if you want the loudest exhaust, screw performance

they basically only say that to cover their own asses, so u cant blame them if you get a ticket or something dumb like that.
