ok guys I kinda need a quick answer as my turbo is right here in front of me and I don't wanna break it.. I'm porting the wastegate and have everything ready to go but I need to get the flapper off of the hole and it seems stuck.. I'm just being extra careful, maybe it's simple, but is there a trick to getting the flapper to open besides just prying it open with screwdriver?

 

please ignore...
