If you install a booster pump, you will increase the frictional losses to a stage there will be no water to pump! Cavitation will enter the picture! your pipe sizing is too small, If you start out wrong, corrective measures demand going back to the start & resize. Calculate the cost, you say $1000.00 against the pump cost + installation of power and the plumbing then add maintenance & running costs, the $1000.00 sounds cheap to me, and far more proffessional
