Default Well....My Jun 3 cams broke....Pics inside

I took the car to the Hondata dealer, and he tuned the ECU using a wideband oxygen sensor after installing the RC 440's and several passes on the street. We drove the 60 km to the dyno to do further fine tuning and see what power the car made. On the dyno, after the second run, the cams BROKE. The run was already done, and the technician was already off the gas, there was a loud noise and the engine shutoff. We pulled the valve cover and there it was...a broken exhaust cam. My compression on three cylinders was all low.





I already contacted Jun about the problem, and they have asked me to ship them my head so that they can take a look at it. They have told me that if the cams are defective, they will pay for whatever parts need to be replaced.

i'm sorry about the broken cam, but i think that is awesome that jun offered to replace and fix anything that was broken instead of saying it was your fault because they were installed wrong or something. hope everything turns out good.
