VVTi engines are amenable to the same benefits that all NA engines benefit from - improved intake, headwork, camshafts, compression, and exhaust.
It just so happens that some VVTi engines are already in a reasonably "high" state of tune so clowns with little understanding of the complexities of these engines are probably going to make things worse when they start toying with them. Combine that with the limited number of aftermarket ECUs that can adequately deal with continuously variable valve timing and most people put the whole thing in the too hard basket.
You just have to be a bit smarter about things - people have been screwing a lot more hp than standard out of the BEAMS 3SGE.
