are u sure its not a blue/grey smoke?? if so it means that your engine is using/burning oil at high revs like a lot of members cars on here. valve seals or piston rings, get a compression test done and if need be a leak down test, that should narrow it down.

i had my car on the dyno last week, at 4400rpm (vtec) and 6000rpm (secondaries opening) it let out a puff of black/grey smoke but nothing after that, and when i was going home i was following my friend in his VTi civic and the same was happening when his vtec engaged.
