my hatch with a itr does it. its very common mine does only in 4th gear about 7krpm but it still put down 186 with i/h/e so let it smoke as long as it runs good check your oil periodically

Check you manifold, if there any oil deposit then you might want to try replacing your PCV valve. I had the a similiar problem and after I replace me PCV valve it stopped smoking at VTEC.
If it is not that I would do a leak down test to make sure that your rings are ok.
