Boost pressure per boost pressure, you will notice a big difference, yes. Huge, no. If being a bolt on is a big consideration for you, then yes, the BT28 is worth it. If it's not then no it is not worth it, IMO. You can purchase an Evo 3 16g and a 2G kit and save roughly $100-$200. The Evo 3 16G flows about 20-30 CFMs more also.
So, is it worth it? That's all dependent on your wants and needs.

If you keep the pressure down at around 10-12psi, you won't need to upgrade your fuel, but any higher and you will.

Nah, it's not hard, just more involved than a drop in. Look in VFAQ, under turbo and you'll see how to install a 16g into a 2g.

That is everything you will need in order to have it bolt onto the car. But of course there is the obvious misc stuff you need to actually run the turbo such as MBC, Fuel system upgrades, some sort of piggyback to control fuel, guages, ect.

FP Big28 FTW. I have heard nothing but great things about it. make sure to get it ported.

and get hard intercooler piping and a bigger sidemount and you would be fine. personally i would prefer a small fmic. but you do not NEED one. 550's and a wally190... mbc... and so on... nicest easiest. stock looking is always a plus. and your car can rip. get anywhere from 300-350hp pretty easily with a good tune(most important part).
