Yes i think it can be done. The fiesta floorpan is almost the same IIRC.

The end part of silencer/exit will have to be shortened/moved back or it will stick out the rear as the Ka finishes just behind the wheels but the fiesta has more boot/rear.

If i had my Ka at the moment id get a pic for you

I'm looking at a mongoose system for the mk3 fiesta turbo, but I just don't want to have to completely cut the exhaust, but it is the only system I have found that is 2.5" bore,
Cheers

one of my mates built one of these and i think the fiesta exhaust was a straight bolt on.
just need to shorten the rear or tailpipe as you could trip over it from how far it stuck out!!
