Default Problems in VTEC....

After VTEC engages it feels like I'm hitting my fuel cut off for a split second and does this several times before redline. It's like a sputtering? Don't really know how else to explain it. What do you guys think the problem could be? Fuel problem, detonation? Mods in sig

Oil level is fine. First thing I checked.

It doesn't seem like it's coming out of VTEC, just not getting any fuel at all for a split second and then coming back strong. Like a hesitation. TPS maybe?

Check the resistances on your ignition coil. Mine has gone out 3 times now, and it feels like it's hitting fuel cutoff (usually under heavy load, such as VTEC).
