If he's got no oil feed line, he's got no VTEC. Plain and simple.

??? As far as I know, you can use either oil pump as they are both physically the same size and mount into the block. As for VTEC, if he's not feeling it, something 'aint right.

Are you sure its the Vtec kicking in or is it the IAB, if he is using the GSR intake manifold.

Well he is runnin the GSR ecu, he has a Knock Sensor installed so there is no CEL on, um. he says he is sure that he hears the VTEC engaging.. but no power felt. Is there any way to check if the Vtec is working?? Maybe an oil change will help?? any suggestions?? Thank you guys

IAB is the secondary intake on the GSR's. At 5800(?), the butterflies open.
