Default a6 block y8 head need help vtec wont hit on no cel?

I heard that the a6 block has a weak oil pump and i would need to change it if i wanted to have vtec. If true what pump do i use a 1.6 or 1.5? I have no cel on a chipped p28. The head has a skunk 2 stage 2 cam, skunk deuce intake manifold, port and polish it should scream but it's a turd! Vtec solinoid clicks on straight power but not on a button. How do i check if head or solenoid has enough oil pressure!!!! Help it's driving me insane!!!!

Did you pull the little oil jet valve out of the block? If you didn't thats your problem.
