What compression ratio will I get with a head planned .155"? Will a head planned that much be tough?

No you can not safely remove that much material. The most i've ever seen one was .134" and that one was given to me. I would not personally mill one over .100" Not only will you risk the gasket surface cracking if you go over that, but you also run into other performance issues.
If you're going to run a turbo, you'll want to keep around the stock CR which is 8.5 - 9.0:1

Ok then,
Does anyone has a stock or still usabe straight runners head for sale?? I'm new to the 1.6 liter modification and I may be wrong but I guess this is the open chamber head. I have closed chamber heads that I'll ship for free if someone want to trade with me.
I'll wait for offers.

I have a head that came off a 83/84 1.6 that I am willing to part with. The cam was warped when I tore down the block, but the head looks good. It will need to be rebuilt.
I'm new to the world of the 1.6 as well.
How does $40 and you pay shipping sound?
I live in Georgia.

Fields says that these years are restrictive for what I want to do. I'm looking for a straight runners head to build a turbo setup. It could have been the good part!
Thanks for asking
Olivier
