That all depends on your long term plan. I personally cant stand double spending, especially with force induction cuz better products come out constantly. If you plan to have just a streetable daily driven turbo civic, then by all means boost that D15. If you plan to go a little more than just having fun with a boosted D15, then build a B-series and turbo it. i used to have both boosted D and B series. Both fun. But the difference is major. I scare myself driving my old boosted ITR motor.
