Default VTEC

I recently did a z6 swap and i havnt wired up VTEC because im still waiting on a p28, but it is burning oil very fast and i was wondering if it was not good to drive my car like this with no VTEC?

what does having no VTEC have to do with burning oil?
If you're burning oil you probably have OTHER things wrong...

- valve seals?
- bad piston rings?

Exactly. One has nothing to do with the other. Driving without VTEC is fine. Driving while burning a **** ton of oil is not.
