Jets aside, what bout a leaf blower motor? Designed to work against some static pressure, high cfm. An easy option? Got to check the easy options first. The blower could be independently powered by its' own small engine, or is that cheating?

road kill did it in a car and it worked. they used 4 leaf blowers though/ one might be a bit much for a 50cc. maybe a cheap one that isn't too powerful, maybe electric, it would be boost on demand.

You could potentially get a stock carb to work with a blow thru set up (they make them for carburetors on cars)
You would need to plumb the carburetor vent line to the intake piping infront of the carb so that the float bowl is boost referenced so the pressure drop accross the venturi stays constant with boost.
You would also need an electric fuel pump and boost referenced fuel pressure regulator that would have to be set have around 2 psi more fuel pressure than boost pressure so fuel flows into the float bowls under boost.
