There must be about four kinds of different Purolator baseplates now. I wonder if the Boss media comes from Germany or is made here. This is a Mercedes OE Mann fleece filter, looks like maybe same media. I put quite a bit of stock into the fact Mercedes has tested and used this kind of media for some years now. If it is the same.

Does Mercedes prefer flow vs efficiency?

These days you can get both high flow and high efficiency. High efficiency does not automatically mean "bad flow performance" (ie, meaning high delta-p vs flow).

Germans take pride in their work and are known for innovation and engineering. Other countries, not such much.
