Default silencer removal??

Hey, I can't get the silencer off my N1. I've had it for a year, and never taken it off, which means it'll probably put up a good fight. I'm just looking for some strategies to get the thing out with minimal damage to the N1/silencer. TIA for answering my stupid question

If i am not mistaken the N1 super silencer is the same as the one for the GT-Spec exhaust. I have a GT spec on my teg and when the silencer gets stuck in i took a socket wrench and stuck it in the whole. Then i set the square drive for the socket on the inner ridge of the silence and gave it a tug, it came right out

Ugh... I keep tuggin, but it's not budging
The only problem is that the silencer is too long and narrow to fit a socket wrench in and get a grip, so i'm using a screwdriver, while using the handle to try and pry off the silencer. So with this, i have no handle.... should i just WD-40 like no tomorrow? or are there any other suggestions?
