Default forced induction and CVT's

so again, i was thinking about cars in one of my classes and started thnking about what would happen if you combined a car with a CVT transmission and some type of forced induction, more specifically i was thinking about superchargers and CVT's

because since they have infinite gear ratios, and the way superchargers only make peak boost at redline, and cvts hold the engine rpms at redline under hard acceleration, a supercharger should be pretty efficient with cvts no?

that way you could have your fuel efficient cars with lots of top end performance from a supercharger no?
