why not go with a d16y8 and bore it out, but your going to have to go with custom pistons and rods

A few years back somebody ran a high 9 in a turbo 1.5litre d15 powered crx. It was super super clean and green if i recall.

The problem with the d15 is the crank and rod journals are all micro in size. You are much better off with a d16.

But throw enough money at it you can do anything.
