I'm assuming you molded the skates with the 3d tongues? Can't rmbr if you mentioned that in the original post. But if it was baked with the original tongues they are slimmer, the 3d tongues for sure would feel super tight. 

I did not. Baked them with the felt tongues as that’s been my go-to setup. Didn’t know if the 3D printed tongues even could be baked

Just got SVH customs and after 2 games I am totally in love with them.  Only issue is getting them on!!!   tried the sideways twist and it doesnt help enough.  Considering heating them up and opening up the skate but I am worried about losing the fit.

Spot heat the very top couple eyelets, stick a softball in and throw them in the fridge for rapid cooling. Really had to do the same with my VH customs. No change to fit at all.

I also started using a shoe horn just out of necessity.

I would find out if it can but I don't see why it couldn't be since true skates are all about the molding process. If you can't, just bake the skates without the tongue then put the tongue on before you lace and mold them. At least this way the boot will form around and with the tongue.
