Vtec not Working Help..

Well let me make this short. I did a Ex to Lx bottom 1week. Of course I have the Vafc2 and I also install that. Well here is the problem I cant feel or even hear Vtec engage why? Can someone help me with any possible why my Vtec wont work. Or is there a way to find out if the Vtec is working or not. Please help my car is running very sluggish. thank you

if it isnt kicking in..... you will definately feel it. It will feel like it will not rev past 5000-5500 RPM or so. Feels like it has ZERO power.

VTEC in the D17 is just for show. I've never felt VTEC kick in. The only thing I notice is that above 4500 it revs faster. That's it. I've never **** my pants when it's kicked in.
