Wait... You rebuilt the head, but you didnt take anything off?

What exactly did you do? What do you consider a "rebuild"?

I'm curious as to what you did to it as well.
There are plenty of "bad idle" threads out there. If you click the "How To" list in my signature there should be a BAD IDLE thing at the bottom. It's under "Off-Site - Team Integra" How To's.

G'luck.

Im really thinking two of the plugs are switched up, though when that happened to me she wouldnt start at all.

Im not sure which two they are, but as I mentioned above, there are two that are commonly switched. They both have the same plugs, and are nearby one another. They are around the throttle body and/or back of the intake manifold.

In reality, you never should have taken it away from the shop if it was running poorly.
