What you are asking I think is the real paradox of performance cars. I could say that if you are interested in performance then you should not care about mpg. But, let's face it, mpg is always an issue with all of us to one extent or another.
You know the one nice thing about nitrous is that you only use it when you need it. Think about it. A 100 HP boost in the pants! And your fuel economy only drops for those few short moments. The rest of the time you have a run of the mill GT. I suppose you could say the same thing for a blower right? At lower RPMS's? Just driver conservatively and you get could mpg, but hit the rpms and you got major power.
