Yeah what he said, superchargers don't have (or need) wastegates. If you're talking about BOV's that's a whole other story, but once again supercharged engines don't need them - not that that stops some people from installing them anyway.
Norbie, i would disagree with this.
A positive displacement blower has the TB situated before the compressor. So in that case, no BOV.
However, alot of the centrifical blowers nowdays create boost before the throttle body and need a BOV to release the pressure between the compressor and the throttle butterfly.
