no i did not put a maxi pad on the turbo wagon

although with as much oil and tranny fluid its startig to leak that may not be a bad idea

 

what i am talking about is these nifty new wipers i ran across at wal-mart

 

they are 18 inch so they a smidge over the 17 thats suppposed to be on there

 

they have a small wing on each wiper so the faster you go the better the wipers stay against the glass instead of them starting to float

 

the are called cyclone wipers

they do seem to work so much better than what i had on there

 

that will be the only winged type of device i put on my wagon

and yes i relaize that that small wiper wing will not add any hp

unlike a giant erector set on the back :brolleye:

i am however confident that the spiffy red color will make me faster

 

 

you can look at who makes them here

well now to finish my breakfast and head to bed

 

btw they are about 6-7$ a piece

and have a few other colors

well, let us know what happens in the rain at high speeds! I think the red is 5 hp.

i chrome spray painted my wiper arms and my sprayers and it gave me about 7hp at the front wheel on the dyno. it was a dyno made for hondas so i'm not sure if that 7hp is true or not. it sure looks fast.

so far in washington weather <90 percent rain>

they work so much better than stock wipers looks like its raining again and i gotta head to work soon so more testing time !!

still work great except it seems i now have a film almost like a poorly applied rain-x type of crap

 

i am guessing its mold release agent from when they made the wipers

now i need to get that off the window

they still work much better than what i had on there

and the wings do help above 40 mph

 

i normally started to get wiper float then

 

now if i can get rid of that stuff on the window

these are SILICONE wipers, that FILM is supposed to be there due to the material

ooohhhhh

i knew they was silly cone

i just did not know they where supposed to leave residue on my winders
