I think you need to help us determine what your end goals are. Given you want to use an aftermarket ECU to tune the car, the Porsche sadly is not the way to go. I'm sure it is possible, but that depends how deep your pockets go.
Based on the variety of makes/models I've owned over the years, I would say that Porsche will have its limitations on tuning. A Cayman or 911 won't be better than a Boxster, at least not by much. The newer models will have more opportunities for tuning, but at that point, it's a point of diminishing returns.
There's a fellow on Rennlist who swapped in a Honda K20 motor into his Boxster and I believe is running a Hondata ECU and seems to be pulling some solid power. Lightweight, reliable 4-cylnder engine and plenty of parts and aftermarket support. Tuning possibilities are endless.
