The heads cam and spray. How much nitrous are you talking? a 100 shot? a 250 shot?
I would rather have the supercharger though, better driveability and the power is always there, no bottles to refill.

A lot of the guys I know that go supercharger are going Procharger. It has a lot to do also with what kind of cam, heads and how much spray your talking? Give us some more specs on the parts your wanting?

I'd bet that either could make similar power. I'm looking about a year down the road thinking about either heads/cam with rebuild or a forged motor and supercharger(or turbo). I'm leaning towards the heads/cam (maybe even stroker) setup since that way it won't put as much strain on the drivetrain as I'm planning on a mostly street setup. I'd expect the s/c to be death to the tranny and rear end in short order due to the massive torque increase.
I'd say that the s/c has the best power potential as you can always spray it too...I'm not saying that your motor or drivetrain will last though. Spray gives a bigger gain on an s/c motor as it also acts as an intercooler.

Between those two...Heads/Cam/Spray, an ATI procharger is a different animal and would be better still ,however it's pricey for everything that has to be done.
