I think she means that when you are below 5500 revs the normal Cams are rotating, then after that magical 5500 revs the 2nd more wild set of cams kicks in in conjunction with the first set

Hence DOHC

Better explanation seeing the CTR has an I-vtec engine http://asia.vtec.net/article/k20a/index.html

Article is on the K20A engine which uses the same principle, where the current civic is the EP3
