Default D15b Swap but is vtec running?

Ok i have a motes chipped Computer and i did a d15b swap from a d16z6, is there anything i have to do in the computer to allow vtec to hit.

Last night i let it warm up for about 30 mins and went out on the road and punched it and nothing then i came back in and read about a Vtec light, http://home.earthlink.net/~civ....html . anyway so i checked my wiring and nothing.. but i didnt make it a perm install just to check to see if vtec is working. so my questions is

how do i check to see if vtec ever comes on?

Do i need to reprogram my chip? and which bin should i use. (Currently i have a d16z6 chip with higher fuel maps i think)

can i test a vtec with a wire tester?


Thanks again for your time
