The main FE benefit of the "test greenhouse wind shield canopy thing" resulted from its rounded "A" pillars that eliminated the vortex produced by the sharp corners of the stock "A" pillars, and also since it eliminated the high pressure zone at the base of the windshield. There's nothing wrong with the angle of my stock windshield, it is just in how it was integrated into the rest of the car with its sharp "A" pillar corners and the change in angle where the hood and windshield joined. Ideally the hood and windshield should be integrated into a single curved shape with rounded corners at the "A" pillar locations.
