Default VTEC quit on dyno?

was having the car tuned and vtec was coming on and off. now it wont come back at all. checked oil level is fine, wiring seems to be fine, and the vtec sensor is working when hooked up manually.

what could be causing the drop in pressure? oil pump is my guess but thought i would ask if anyone else has had similar experience.

new motor has less then 1000 miles

thanks, calhoun
