Why does phatshaft use a fatter shaft? To prevent turbo surge from breaking shafts.
Engineer a turbo that does not surge is fixing the problem rather the masking it up. Correct me if I am wrong but if the shaft is larger than doesn't the housing for that shaft have to get larger? In that case wouldn't you be sacrificing vane length? Which would create a less efficient turbo that surges.
At what boost were you running the Super B when it failed; what was determined as the cause of failure?
Let get some details here....

I was pushing about 38-40 psi and snapped the shaft my phatshaft has held up awesome and spools quicker and I am pushing around 50 psi and I have not had a single complaint

I have called bd about my turbo and they said they would rebuild it on my dime so I gave up on it and thats why I went with a different turbo. I have heard that the twin setup is a really good from bd. I still have my super b and thinking about having it rebuilt but just can' t afford it.
