Default DC5-R, got code P1253

Hi guys

Ok I installed an Innovate LC1 wideband and Apexi AFC NEO into a DC5 R. The car is stock otherwise from an Injen CAI, DC Sports header and Apexi Exhaust. After the install I got a cel and immediately pulled code 1253...my scanner says it Pedal Correlation?? ... Ive searched around and found its actually a VTEC malfunc. Has anyone dealt with this problem before. The car has a rev cut @ around 4000rpms. Oh forgot to mention the car came from Japan, the previous owner had a revspeed meter installed and removed it before auction so some of the ecu wires were previously spliced into. Thanks!
