Actually, there is no VTEC with the Toda cams, it gets rid of that and uses a traditional cam setup instead. Stop insulting people if you don't know what you're talking about.

P72 has Vtec Pressure and Vtec Spool enabled in it. If the ecu is chipped, ground both of those items out.

Spool valve is working fine once it gets to a certain rpm my test light lights up everytime(while i'm driving).Pressure switch is the problem i guess. I have the black grounded and the blue is running to the ecu C15 but its supposed to have a 12v constant with the key on. I get nothing at all when i test it with the test light. No ground or current. Its like its not connecting to anything at all!

Are you serious? You're on a car website and you don't know what VTEC is? Do you not just know what it stands for, or do you really not know what VTEC is?

take a pic of the solenoid. JDM ecu don't look for a pressure switch. They don't care how much pressure is in the oil or even if the motor has oil. It will still engage. All the JDM ecu is have a activation switch that kicks in at a certain RPM.

USDM's have a pressure switch that is green on the solenoid. But since you are using a JDM ecu it doesn't matter

A JDM ecu is Square and a USDM ecu is rectangle.

Just trying to throw somethings out there to keep you thinking.

Try running a constant 12v power to the pressure swith through a toggle switch and turn it on when you want vtec to engane to see if it is the pressure switch. Also is you speedo hooked up. No speedo or a bad speed sensor will also not let vtec engage.
