Vtec not engaging

ok so i have a 97 prelude base model. the block is 97 and the new head that i just swapped is an 01. i had a huge problem getting the head on and the correct timing. But now that its on it seems to be working ok. I even have restored power to the car even without the vtec engaging. Was wondering if anyone knew any trouble shooting i could do to the car to check the vtec issue.

I also got a check engine light so i checked the codes and got this back, 108 map/baro high input, not sure if that is part of the vtec or not.

that CEL seems like a MAP sensor problem. check your oil level and vtec solenoid for the VTEC problem.
