Re: Vtec not working...
Hm, try this: get going at about 20 MPH in 3rd gear. Slam the throttle all the way open and take it to red line. Listen carefully and you should hear an audible change in the engine note at around 5K RPM's. If there was a VTEC malfunction you'd be getting a CEL.

Re: Vtec not working...
VTEC controller depends on oil pressure. Make sure your oil is at the correct level.
