Default JDM H22 will not crack vtec help please!!!

Ok here is what i got its a H22a in a 93 civic sedan. Im running a spoon chipped p13 and a external MSD coil. I know its not the ECU i ran a friends chipped P28 tuned for his car and still nothing, I've changed the vtec solinoid. It does throw a code for EGR but im not running it, i have it blocked off. Vtec is wired correctly, and still nothing. It does idle up and down because of the iac, But from what i understand won't cause it not to crack. Other then whats mentioned it runs good and strong. It does have great oil pressure as well above spec. Compresion was about 240 across the board. I can't think of anything else off hand the i've tried, Can anyone give me some ideas or help me out? Thanks for any helpful info!

That would be a negative but thanks for the bump!

It is wired correctly. The model is a DX, it throws no codes for vtec at all.
