After much reading and contemplating I just placed an order for a corsa extreme catback and headers from stainless works :p

One of my cats is throwing the efficiency below threshold code so I think it's time to upgrade :). Does anyone know a good vendor to purchase through if I can't find a used setup?

As of Friday the 13th I finished everything up. This seems to have reversed my bad luck because she is running like an absolute champ. Huge thanks to everyone here who helped.

:) Update, part took a few weeks to come. It looks different than I expected, thought it was really interesting that it has a tiny oil channel that leads to the galley. I'm assuming it's supposed to dictate the flow of oil. Tonight I finished putting the new head on. Terrifying torque sequence...

Mine has a plug on the other side but it's further recessed in than the passenger side head. Hopefully that's how it's supposed to be lol, my "shop" obviously hasn't done the best job but maybe they got that part right. I'm actually curious how necessary they are, since I think it would just...

Thank you both, the 3L3Z-6026-AA is one of the ones I already had, the head needs two of those on top like in my picture here. I have now ordered AL3Z-6052-A. The hole is smaller than 18mm, so 14mm sounds exactly right. I was going to have to get creative if I couldn't figure this out lol. I'm...

Okay this is driving me crazy, I can not identify the pin/plug this is. It's pretty much the only hangup for the moment.

Small update, rest of the parts came but I forgot freeze plugs. Any recommendations on which ones to use? I see summit racing has brass ones, I'm having trouble locating the oem ones.

This is the response I got. Seems like going to court is going to be my best option at this point.

New head arrived today! Tasca sent me an email and said the part I ordered didn't correspond with my VIN. They suggested another part number but said it would be on backorder with no ETA and asked if I wanted that one or if I'd like the original part I chose. After looking up both part numbers...

I've ordered the cylinder head from Tasca as well as new oem valves and springs. I also got an oem head gasket. I did order a couple retainers and keepers in case some go into orbit but I intend to reuse the ones I have. I also sent ETA another email about all this. I will let everyone know how...

I appreciate the words and advice nonetheless. Can you tell me what additional parts I'd need if I ordered this cylinder head from tasca...

Replaced as far as I know. They did send me these pictures during the process

It's the passenger side :(

Sadly..no. It has been a horrible experience with this company. I purchased through a company called Engines and Transmissions of America. They are just a sales company so they deferred the work to another company called Promar Engine. The first time I got the motor back it had no compression in...

I wish I would have been asked beforehand. I had no idea what it looked like. Where can I affordably get another head?

A while ago I had the dreaded broken valve spring and unfortunately for me dropped the valve and caused some wicked engine damage. Long story short I sent my motor to a company to be remanufactured who deemed my head and block acceptable to do so. Once it was back and reinstalled the head gasket...
