Does it actually COST me that amount (the difference in the design cost) per turn to upgrade it?

Yes it would, probably even more since you will be replacing existing components to fit your price curve exactly.

So can you upgrade a ship a second time before the just-upgraded components have been repaired?

Yes you can.

It's more complicated than that; looking at settings.txt, you pay 30% of each component REMOVED, plus 120% of each component ADDED.

As of v1.35, and in P&N games, it is 10% the cost of removed components, plus 70% of the price for adding components.
