The Banks system is $6K or so. I'd recommend an intercooler which would add another $1000-$1500 easy with the plumbing. You can do without and add water/alcohol injection, but not an ideal situation.
You will likely spend in the $8K to $12K for a reasonable long block to handle the boost. More if you want to go bulletproof. That's also if you can do the engine assembly yourself, otherwise add $1500+ for assembly.
You could make the power for less, but if you wanted to be able to do it time and again it pays to use better parts.
