So these warehouses... were they at the VEC (GM Technical Center)? I pick up and deliver parts often to many GM locations around here and warehouses.. (at the GM Proving Grounds I get a lot of looks at the car.. heheh)

If I figure out where it is I'll:
a. check it out and take some detailed pictures of the supercharger setup
b. devise a complex plan to remove it and clone it

Even if we knew the warehouse location, those cars are sandwiched in there. And I'm sure there's a large amount of surveillance and gates that you must get through. It'd take a good deal of social engineering to get in there, and then a lot to get it out unnoticed. Impossible.

I'd like to take some shots though.

obviously you've never had to deal with a Tech Center guard.

its like a rummage sale for anyone wo walks in over there!

[ion] C2 · 08-20-2008, 08:41 AM

Hmm not at Dock #18, they're all serious about who can enter and exit their shipping facility.

Actually I did deal with one of the gate guards once at the main Tech Center, I had a box of seatbelt stuff that I didn't even know what it was, and I was like "I'm here to drop off this box.. I actually don't even know what it is." and he let me go through and told me where to go and everything, haha. Then I met the GM guy who worked on the Alero's interior, and he checked out my car and we talked for a bit.

when I was younger, I went with my dad to "bring your kid to work day" and we got to walk through design and I saw the mock-up of the avalanche and I believe the aztec... it was pretty sweet but from what I've heard, design is harder to get into now.

Oldsnut · 08-20-2008, 10:02 AM

The location is not at the Tech Center.

Aleromod's new overall goal:

1. Locate warehouse containing Alero OSV.
2. Plan epic retrieval mission.
3. Succeed, copy parts, give it back to GM, maybe.

what kind of engine is it anyway? is it actually a fully functional car? it would be fun to steal it, put the vin #s from a red alero on it with similiar features, and take it to a gm dealership for service. they'd be like "wtf!"

[ion] C2 · 08-20-2008, 10:05 PM

then they'd arrest you, lol.

It's the 2.4L LD9, fitted with a custom M62 supercharger setup with a liquid to air intercooler built in, fully driveable.

TheEdgeofSanity · 08-20-2008, 10:15 PM

hmm...is that the kind of supercharger that ur trying to use?

if you look at his signature.. you'll see "EATON MP45"

so no.. lol

[ion] C2 · 08-20-2008, 10:55 PM

You nub. I have an MP62 sitting here, but it's the one off the Ion/Cobalt. It's the same type of supercharger, same size, but likely more efficient since it looks like the OSV one was the previous generation supercharger. I'm making an intake manifold for it and using it soon... heheh
