Adjust your valves, and make sure your using oil of the correct viscosity... and it has oil in it.

 

You don't hear vtec untill about 5k Rpms.

Some engines are more quiet than others, thats all. It's not necessarily a bad thing.

Check to see if both of your idles are the same.

and your D15B will make more noise in VTEC. your buddies dont have VTEC. which would make his quiter. and it is normal for slight ticking from a honda. especially when its cold
