It's VTEC, not v-tec, first of all. Secondly, it sounds like one of your gaskets started to blow out and now it hits a harmonic when you get into the VTEC RPMs. Happens all the time.

Try looking around your engine bay for loose objects and then replace your manifold gaskets when you get some spare time.
