Removing intake fitting

I want to removing fitting so I can replace it with a NPT barb fitting for a vacumm reference. It looks pressed fit, any tips to get it out, or it just takes man handling?

I wouldn't bother they don't "pop out". Ruff it up a tad with a dremel or something if it makes you feel better. I've run over 30lbs and never had an issue with it. Pulling it out risks damaging the intake. At minimum I'd heat it up with a heat gun if you plan on yanking it out.
