Thats two failures out of what 10-15 kits? All the failures, even the ones on the BRZ seem to be snapped turbine shaft which is what rotrex were famous for a good few years ago.

I have fitted the the V1 17" rears to the front of mine and with 15mm spacers and they will fit the same brake kit that Josh has. I know that isn't much help (as your kit is different), but just saying that the rear wheels have a bit more clearance than the fronts do, so may be worth trying using your existing rears and some washers to simulate a 15mm spacer? That way, if they fit, all you have to buy is two standard rear wheels, not four (and have them machined for the larger centre bore). Mine is also lowered on Ohlins and I have no clearance issues

I would imagine the air going back through the charger and trying to make the blades go backwards would not be good for the supercharger shaft but im no expert!

Well 3, if you count my mates that died too.. mine, this one and my friends
but its not the shafts that snap, but the threads that connect it all together wear away going by the BRZ thread - thinking back though i think my friend said his shaft snapped PLUS the threads wore away, no idea on mine other than it failed..
Wonder if enough of them fail that if they are out of warranty they will have to replace them FOC or refund?
My flutter is sorted now since being on the new charger, and i am staying well clear of the rev limiter, so if mine fails again :s
