For starters there is the fact that quasars ar seen to be in the center of galaxies with redshifts exactly matching the galaxy, yet Arp et. al say that quasars are emitted from galaxies and have an intrinsic redshift vastly different from the "host galaxy".

Arp ignores quasars with observed host galaxies, because they do not fit his silly model.
That's a common misconception. See here:

Arp contends that quasars evolve into normal galaxies. The quasar is the nucleus of this evolving galaxy in his model just as in the standard model. Seeing surrounding galaxy structure is expected. He's not ignoring it.
