I just don't see why you'd want to do this swap....

as far as I can see, the newer engine(987-2 3.4 as in the spyder) with headers, free-flow exhaust(no catalyst), and an aftermarket controler would give me more power than I could get out of any m96/m97 boxster/cayman engine with no internal modifications. If I were to swap in any engine from a 996 I would have to race in classes that are pretty much unlimited race only, stripped out specials. this is the only class other than stock that a street boxster can race in, and unfortunately, all boxsters and caymans are calssed together, but I am allowed to update the engine, and or transmission assembly, etc.. I also can run any induction or exhaust that meets noise requirements.
I would think the easiest thing to do though would be to retune the siemens unit , and delete some of the auxillary functions(catalyst monitoring, AIR, etc.), while maybe adding varioram if not equipped, and using an intake setup from a 997s with varioram.
or maybe an aftermarket setup, like motec, with individual throttle bodies on each port, with the plenum above, kinda like the bmw m-motors were.
