Default Stubborn intake hose

okay I can't seem to get the intake hose out from the driver side. I losened the two clamps and everything, I was able to disconnect it from the air box but at the throttle body it wont budge what the hell?! Anyone got any tips to get it off?

Try sliding a small screwdriver under it to help separate it.

Honestly, if you are having trouble, I'd suggest having someone who is more mechanically inclined help you with this kinda stuff.

just take a razor blade and cut a slit down the middle all the the way down to where it bolts to the mafs and then peel it like an orange.
