My blower appears to have just failed. It was a replacement which I paid for and received in Jan 2016 after waiting 6 months for it to arrive from Japan.
I was getting zero boost so removed and checked the blower. It is in exactly the same state as others I saw on this thread that failed in Russia. The annulus has separated at the threads. I bought this from HKS North America's recommended dealer at the time.
I am massively disappointed and moreover if HKS denies fault for the same failure seen multiple times here now I will make a lot of noise. Plus the 6 month screw around i had last time actually getting the part was ridiculously unacceptable. How can they sell these and carry zero backup? People's cars are down when these things fail.
The unit has ~7000 miles on It, stock pulley always. Stock fuel and custom tune with 7000 rpm fuel cutoff. There is nothing I could have done to have caused this.
I will report my results here yet again.

That's shitty news man I will put up a post of my permanent fix for this issue as soon as it's done being tested!
