Check your tune. Vtec either hits or does not hit. So oil has nothing to do with how hard it pulls. Vtec engagement could be too soon, which will actually cause a drop in power and torque. Aslo check all the simple things like timing, and tune-up items.

mine crossed over at 4500 and was fine, that all depends on the cams. what cams are you running?
