Can anyone tell me how to remove these clamps?
<center><img src="http://members.aol.com:/s4zero8/clamps.jpg"></center><p>Do I have to cut these and buy new hose clamps? These look like a real PITA to remove. I'm suspecting maybe the hose connection to the turbo below is loose because Intake won't hold pressure. Leaking somewhere down there on driver side.

FWIW, those clamps never see pressure (except when you pressure test).
They are normally under vacuum. So if they leak slightly at 10-15 psi, its probably not a serious issue.
But yeah they are one use crimp clamps so you have to cut/pry them off and replace them.
