Default PLEASE HELP Check engine light come on after Vtec kicks in

I have been running my JDM B16A with my DX ECU for a bit while waiting for the JDM P30 ECU to come in. With my DX ECU, there is no check engine light come on or anything like that but after i switch the ECU to the JDM P30 ECU then after the vtec kicks in the check engien light will come up, if i don't rev it up more than 3 or 4K RPM then the light won't come up also. Please help me figure out what is the problem??? also i did run the vtec wire from the engine to the A4 wire in the ECU.

Buy a Haynes manual and it will tell you exactly how to check your codes.
