When the oil reaches a certain pressure, it lets the vtec solenoid work thus causinghte engine to go onto the big vtec lobe.
JDM motors do not have an oil presssure switch b/c the JDM ECU's do not look for one. The USDM ECU's do look for one, so f u have a jdm motor, you must install an vtec oil pressure switch, i had to do so on my JDM ITR.
