Yes, the vvt is another system that can fail. But it is still robust enough to be on thousands of warranty covered vehicles. So I don't think that retaining the vvt makes your build any more or less bulletproof than it would be without it.
Plus, you already have it. If the blower accessory drive lines up with the vvt timing cover, then I say see what the stock vvt cam gets you with 12psi of boost.
