Alright, so I read a PASMAG where the guy figured out that the best place to put his sub was in the corner of his trunk facing forwards, plus a guy I deem to be pretty knowledgeable as far as car audio goes says that if I want forwards facing subs I should look into corner or slot loading.
so what exactly does this entail? corner loading sounds like I just put the sub in a regular fiberglass box in the corner of my trunk, but slot loading sounds more complicated. any difference? will I still lose SPL by going from, say, a rear-facing regular box to going to a corner/slot loaded box?

I would propose that your best bet is the corner box. The sound then originates from the box and all of it travels in one direction - away from the driver. With any other install where the driver is not at the very back or corner of the car there will be cancellation at some point, it just may not be objectionable.
