It's fine, but no need for such a big flop raise.

Looks like a pot-sized raise to me. What would a better raise be? $10? $12?

the EV difference between calling and folding the turn is minimal IMO

I hate this sutiuation. You are clearly beat! But you are pot commited practically. You are getting 3 to 1 on your money. I think that you will be beat more than 1 out of 3 times. Doesn't that mean fold?

raise flop to 9 or so... and is it worth calling all in here? his all in is wierd but id probably muck.

Yeah, I like $10-12 more than $15. A PSR in this spot feels like a pretty big overbet to villain, and he'll fold a lot of crap pairs that would give you action. You can't always worry about flush draws. And even when he has a flush draw, remember that he'll miss it 80% of the time, and you can setup another -EV situation for him by applying pressure.
