i tryed the oil filter wrench that wraps around it and could not get it to buge ,then i tryed the stabbing a screwdriver all the way through it and still it would not buge,so i riped the housing off to were its just the cap ,then tryed to take a screwdriver and stick it the holes aroud the cap and tryed to tap it loose with a hammer and im still not getting the dam thing to buge ..

When you get the old filter off. Make sure to LUBE THE GASKET so it will be easier the next time. When a filter is stuck, it is almost always because the gasket wasn't lubed correctly, or at all. I've had my share of stuck filters because the last place to perform an oil change didn't do this.
