Default what in the hell!!!

Ok, as I mentioned in my other posts, I got the Skunk2 Stage2 cams, gears,.retainers and springs..When they put it in on the dyno, he adjusted the cam gears to 2,4....I said, "How do you know that's right" He said, "I've done this over 30 times." So, enough said, he's the professional...He gets it going on the dyno, and as soon as VTEC engaged there was this real loud popping sound and a whistle of air...Everyone looked at each other like, what the f...After the 3rd time of it doing that, he finally shut it off.....They did some tinkering, and decided to put the cam gears back to stock..0,0...They thought my motor could be shot...Well, THANK GOD, when they put it back on the dyno, it ran fine....Screaming at 8300 for 10 minutes.....They weren't sure what that noise was...Do you guys have any ideas of what it could have been....182wbh....I guess nothing broke.....

lol, reminds me of the time I went to the dyno... I overheard the lead guy say, "uhh, I've never seen an Integra on one of these before", as they were strapping down my car.
