What's wrong? Not holding boost out the top?

Has anybody here ported/polished their head before? I was thinking about taking mine off and gasket matching the intake/exhaust and cleaning up all the carbon and casting from the insides. (after 83,000 miles I'd imagine there is a lot of carbon). Any thoughts or input appreciated.

What's up peeps! I'm in the local area visiting family and was wondering if there are any places where I can pick up a JDM bumper for my WW9 while I'm here so I don't have to pay for the $hipping all the way to Arkansas? Any help would be appreciated!
