Need help with intercooler pipe.

I had to pull the plastic intercooler pipe off. Its the one on the drivers side, that goes from the bottom of the intercooler to the intake. Its just a plastic tube that slips over the metal intake elbow. But some crazy reason I cant get the stupid thing to go back on. Is there a trick or am I just not holding my tongue the right way lol? I'm gonna go out and try again but thought I would see if anyone had any tips. Thanks.

I got it on. Went to the wife's toolbox and borrowed her hair dryer. I laid it up next to the tube, on hot setting, let it heat for a minute or so and it popped right on.

Good deal. That's usually a good trick. I wish I had the metal pipe instead of the plastic tube...

I would think so since the inlet and outlet ports from the intercooler are the same size from 03-07.
