I suspect that Onroak would be their constructor of choice to pair with in '18 for a DPi.
" Q. What cars are eligible in the 2017 WeatherTech Championship Prototype class? A. DPi cars, 2017 LM P2 cars and closed-cockpit 2016 LM P2 cars with IMSA-homologated engines will be eligible. After the 2017 season, 2016 LM P2 cars no longer will be eligible."

Ok, thanks for the clarification. Leaves me with the question whether the ARX04b is considered a "2016" car, given it's really a 2014/2015 car. But it is/was legal for 2016, so one might say, it is a "2016" car.
