I'm no expert on drag racing but yes it would cost a lot if you tried using the existing engine.
Youre best bet would be to use an engine other than an F20C. Most people are well aware that it takes an extreme amount of money to build an F20c capable of handling the high boost numbers required for producing enough hp to generate times like those.
The cheapest option would be to use something like an RB26DETT or RB25DET. Both engines are cheaply available and are built to handle high ammounts of boost. There are several RB26DETT's built with large single turbo's producing in excess of 1000hp. 600hp is fairly easily attainable.
Problem is the drivetrain is only going to handle 1 or 2 launches before it will be toast, and because of screwed up weight balance the car will handle like sh!t.
To make it semi-reliable you would probably have to spend somewhere around $15k on the drivetrain.

I mean, honestly, look at the last three or four threads this guy has started...
All I can say is, if this is what you're wanting to do, then get a goddamned EVO VIII when they come out. They'll be much easier to make fast.
