iVTEC & VTEC aren't exactly the same thing. The implementation in the 06+ Civics (R18) is similar to my wife's CR-V. On in the low range, off in the high range. It's designed for better fuel economy and power at lower engine speeds, where it's important in day to day driving. 06+ Si's have true VTEC, and has a noticeable crossover. Off in low range, on in high range of rpm, designed for increased power at spirited driving speeds.
