Default Vtec Problem/Sputters/loss of power

Yea my gsr is acting retarded. When I try to go into vtec my car sputters and gives off popping sounds. There's like no power at all. My oil level is good/New distributor rotor/new spark plugs and wires. So I don't know what it can be. This started after running my car hard one night. It started to pop more and more and I can't even get up to high rpms. Plz help me out guys

Problem solved bad distributor coil. It was ruin because I had a cut in my old spark plug wires and it was grounding with the valve cover.
