Default Need Vtec help!!

i have a 2000 civic si with the b16a2 and its throwing a code 22. Which i found out is the vtec oil pressure switch i checked it and its plugged in. my vtec works but sorta cuts on and off at higher rpm's its done it twice in 4th at 7800 and once in third at 7500 it sounds as if my vtec cuts on and off could it be my vtec oil pressure switch and if so where can i find and price one.
