Default Sorry but yet another maf question.

Why does the Hitachi not need a laminar screen while as both the S4 and RS4 Bosch do?

Is the Hitachi that much more superior?

And hitachi can't use it.

my hitachi has a metal screen on it, similar to a screen door mesh.

Isn't the Bosch is superior in terms of flow, it's 3mm wider.

I will say A-Box modded S4's I've driven were definitely faster than their respective M-Box. :-P
