My second time running in the “drifting pit” at Gateway Motorsports Park, with junk rear tires, a stage 2 turbocharger kit, pedal dance mode, coilovers, sway bars, strut bars, custom-tuned exhaust, and absolutely no skill whatsoever!
Cars & Coffee St. Louis is held at Gateway Motorsports Park in Madison, Illinois. The event takes place from noon to 3 p.m. and admission is free. Cars and Coffee is an informal gathering of car hobby enthusiasts who meet and share their passion for automobiles. Everyone is invited and there are no memberships or dues required. Less than one hour after our gates opened, the entire 280-car parking area designated for Cars & Coffee St. Louis reached capacity and the event spilled into an area set aside as the drift arena during Midnight Madness events. The cars just kept coming! We estimate over 500 vehicles attended.

Koneko, our track-prepped Turbo FR-S, sitting on custom racing coilovers, tubular sway bars, reinforced strut towers, nine inch tires, ten pounds of boost, and several dozen other modifications, blasts her way down the twisties at full throttle!

Starting off with some drifting video, and ending with a laundry list of complaints, this video aimlessly discusses the Speed By Design Stage 2 turbocharger kit for the Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S and Toyota 86. Would i buy it again? Absolutely. Turbo FR-S FTW!
The rally roll cage is complete and the Porsche is now officially a Rally car! Big thanks to Thompson Racing Fabrication for building the most epic roll cage I have ever seen!
The PCV valve is designed to suck blow-by out of your crankcase, and thus you need a proper catch-can and connection to your intake manifold. However, the crankcase breather is there to allow fresh air back into the engine, and hence where we have a problem on a turbocharged car. That crankcase vent hose is generally connected to the intake pipe, causing your turbocharger to forcefully suck oil out of your crankcase, and that is bad news! A lot of people will spend an outrageous amount of money on a second catch can, when in reality, you do not want that hose connected to your intake pipe at all. This video quickly shows you how to connect an old-school crankcase breather filter, thus solving the problem once and for all. “But…” ONCE AND FOR ALL!
