Cutting a MWE slot?

I've heard that you can cut a MWE slot into the H1C.. and it will give you some nice turbo whistle sound! Who has done this, how is it done?, and last but not least maybe some picture instructions!!!!

I looked at his profile pictures and there are 2 that say before and after... but I cant see what he did? they look the same to me. Is this something that can be done while the turbo is on the truck?

Remove the intake hose, remove the outlet clamp, loosen the clamp that holds the compressor one, twist and pull.
