Yep, you figured it out. Those damn little dents in the oil pan really mess with your vtec crossover point.
You do realize that your running a non-vtec distributor with a vtec head, right. Also why would you run map of a DOHC when your running a SOHC and do you even know if the map was done right?

clearly this statement is false.

why are you detonating? you cant just keep adding fuel and no air. Either way the setup sounds like its hacked together and no matter what, there is NO reason why you should be running a map that is for a completely different motor. If you went through the hassle of getting the ECU chipped, why not just chip it for your setup and maybe add some fuel if really need be for the motor you actually using?

With all this time you've been replying back. Look for a virgin p28 or get your car tuned Vtec wont engage until you get up to operating temp.
