Details: direct fuel injection, can be mounted fully stressed, drive by wire throttle standard, offered in a number of capacity configurations from 3.4 liters to the LMP1 maximum of 4.0 liters. Rebuild intervals are between 3500 (sprint engine) and 5000 km (Le Mans) Dyson Racing is currently (May '06) utilizing the P32 TA though the Le Mans Endurance Series competitors are up to -TB spec. The P32 TC could be introduced in time for the Le Mans Test Days. At this time the direct injection feature has not been implemented though the cylinder heads have been designed from the start anticipating this feature. For 2008 the capacity of the P32 is now up to 4.0 liters and work continues on the direct injection system (though it has yet to be implemented). The ALMS version of the P32 has diverged in details to the LMS variant due to the use of E85 fuel in the US series. P32 TE is the latest specification (Le Mans '08) The turbo engine is desinated P32 T, but there is also a normally aspirated derivative, the P32 N. The capcity range for the NA version is 3.4-4.2 liters but the engine is primarily aimed at LMP2 competitors (therefore 3.4 liters). The P32 N would be able to rev to 15,000+ rpm. |
