Could be bad pistons rings too.

How much smoke are we talking about? If its a little thing and some sult only in VTEC then thats normal, get used to it. Now if its a big *** black thing of smoke and it smells like burned oil then it could be the walls or bad rings (usually rings)

Compression test it.
