On further review I think he is saying to wedge the filter against the edge of the front box holding the filter in place in the back side of the rear box.
A whole lot of heat, possible mass dirt entry, and a total RICE, half assed way to make lots of noise.

^The porting thing is fake though...after reading the entire thread it came out that the story has been floating around forums for years. Still funny as hell though.
