Default carb setup question

in the future hopefully before summer, i plan on having my gears installed, along with new heads etc. since im running a carbeurated setup on my fox ive been just considering a nitrous setup, how do you run a supercharger with a carbeurator? i dont recall seeing many setups. other choice would be to start peicing together a junkyard turbo

there are a couple different designs pull through push through one the sc is under the carb(think 03-04 cobra) and the other would be in front the carb would be enclosed in a box and pressurized gotts make sure to run the proper carb for boost so the floats etc dont collapse

there are three ways.....
1. run a carb hat with a blow thrugh carb
2. paxton makes a repo of the 60's pressurized cab box= need special carb set up too
3. weind/holley make a 174 roots type supercharger (personally I like this set up = looks cool)

isnt roots or twin screw like the main option for carb setups? i have seen adapter plates for centrifugal blowers, but it looks retarded and it cant be cheap lol.
