It's hard to help out when there is little information. Did you do this swap or did you buy the car with the swap? Secondly, Vtec, not Vtech, kicks in at 4,500 rpm.

Are you sure it is a GSR motor? Are your secondiarys working? What ECU are you running?

Risks of buying a car with swap done already

Check Engine Light = CEL.

What codes is your car throwing if any? Have them scanned. Autozone does it for free.

Your problem could be 1589816876851698768168765167987 billion things.

Need more information.

VTEC kicks in at 4500rpm (GSR ECU). Secondaries open at 6k (if they're working).
