Turn the boost down to 5psi and you'll feel VTEC 
I run mine at 14psi for most of this year, down to 7 for the daily drive and I feel VTEC again, its what Honda is all about

Correct. Unless you're running some big cams, your tuner should have set it up so vtec engagement is smooth.

Re: i cant feel vtec when boosting (TurbodTegSfaria)
you still have vtec it's just making the turbo spool a whole lot fast but you can still feel it , at least I can in my friends hatch when it hits
