Damn You Turbo Compressor Nipple Hose!!!

AhmadHasib,
I feel your pain, literally. I did this just yesterday. My hand still has cuts from the back of the fan shroud, and many other sharp bits under the hood. Anyhow, here is what I did (similar to below) and it worked like a champ.
1) Use needle nose pliers from the top side to work the clamp off
2) Remove the small center portion of the undertray (the small access panel).
3) Use the longest flat screw driver you have from the underside to push the hose off (up) from the bottom. Move the screw driver blade around the hose and it should pop off (upward) without too much trouble.

I used this method since it was the first I saw, It worked. Thanks once again EvoM members, cant do this without yall. I tired the twisting method but no go, it was almost as if it was super glued on.
I have the Hallman In Cockpit controller. This **** too SO long, I honestly feel like a retard with the amount of time it took. Started at 5 PM, ended at 11 PM. I had to run back to Autozone Auto Parts 4 times because
1) got the hose and zip ties.
2) went back to buy a new rachet set, couldn't find mine
3) went back to get the Right Size Hose, previous one was too large.
4) went back to get battery recharged, for some reason it died although it was disconnected.
Had ALOT of issues geting on the UICP back on, but all is working well now.
Like I said,I have the In Cockpit one. Its 11 o clock and I honestly dont feel like drilling a hole in the firewall, ill do that over the weekend. I have the the line that goes from boost controller to knob all wraped up inside the engine bay, ziptied to anything it can, 10 zip ties to make sure it doesnt move around too much. I have it set to the LOWEST boost possible and my boost gauge is reading exactly between 0.5 bar and 1.0 bar. So its 0.75 bar, Ill adjust it once i get the in cockpit inside the car, for now, itll be set at its lowest.
Once again thanks for all yalls help.
